Transforming Child Heart Health with The Gift of Life International

Transforming Child Heart Health with The Gift of Life International

As we approach Thanksgiving and the holiday season, we at Celebrations Chatter have been thinking a lot about the spirit of giving and gratitude. An important part of building better communities and relationships is helping out those in need, and I can think of few organizations that do this as well as The Gift of Life International.

The Gift of Life International is a Rotary International based organization that has been saving the lives of children with heart disease across the world. Founded in 1975 to help a Ugandan child receive life-saving heart surgery, The Gift of Life’s global network has since treated over 40,000 children in 80 countries. 

In this episode, Jim sits down with CEO Rob Raylman, President/Founder Robert Donno and honoree Dr. Craig Sable, M.D,Healthcare Partner, Pediatric Cardiologist at National Children's Hospital in Washington, DC.  Listen as they share forward how the organization is continuing to impact more and more children worldwide and help sustain future treatments and aftercare in remote communities. 

Best,
