Heal-A-Heart Walk-A-Thon

The Rachel Cooper Foundation is enlisting schools and youth organizations across our country to assist us in the fight against congenital heart defects in children around the world. It is easy and fun to plan and participate in a “Heal-A-Heart Walk-a-Thon” as well as a good way for children to stay fit.

Your school or organization can sponsor a child and raise funds to help offset the cost of that specific operation or to provide general support to our organization as a whole. If you sponsor a child, we will provide you with photos and information about the youngster and if you are located in the NY Metropolitan area even arrange for a committee of your student leaders to meet the child.

You will find great resources for organizing you event here. We have provided you with:

  A Heal-A-Heart Step by Step Walk-A-Thon Guide

  Steps Flyer for Fundraising for Walk-A-Thon

  Sample Parent Letter

  Pledge Forms

  Walk-a-thon Summary Sheet


If you have any questions, please call our office at 1-800-299-7613



HEAL-A-HEART WALK-A-THON HALL OF FAME AND
PHOTO GALLERY

We want to express our heartfelt appreciation to the students, parents and educators in our Walk-a-Thon schools. Each school’s efforts, passionate participation, and support of the Rachel Cooper Foundation resulted in a child receiving life saving open heart surgery. We recognize their accomplishment by inducting them into the Heal-A-Heart Hall of Fame.
