Greater China Children’s Heart Fund
What It’s About
Every child has the right to grow up healthy and strong. Close to 216,000 infants in China are born with congenital heart disease each year. The Greater China Children’s Heart Fund (GCCHF) provides a real solution to this devastating problem.
How It Works
25% of children born with congenital heart disease require lifesaving surgery. Heartbreakingly, more than 60% of ill children don’t receive timely treatment for their illnesses, because their families can’t afford it. Thanks to GCCHF, thousands of children with heart problems and their families have hope and a second chance at life.
Who It Helps
More than 11,811 children have received lifesaving heart disease treatment and/or surgeries thanks to the GCCHF. In addition to the Nu Skin Force for Good Foundation, Nu Skin’s Greater China sales leaders generously support the cause, which has provided preventative therapies and more than 395,710 child heart scans.
