A future worth fighting for

Every little heart deserves a chance.

A child’s heart condition should never be a life sentence because their family cannot afford the care. Jamila Health Foundation helps children access the life-saving heart surgery they need—one child at a time.

♡Founded on a simple belief: no family should face this alone.

Why we exist

A child’s chance at life should not depend on a family’s income.

Congenital heart defects can turn a family’s world upside down. For parents already facing economic hardship, the cost of surgery can make urgently needed treatment feel impossibly far away.

Jamila Health Foundation was created to help close that gap. We support children—primarily in Afghanistan and also around the world—in getting the specialized, life-saving surgery they need.

No parent should have to watch their child suffer simply because they cannot afford the care that could save them.
A clear purpose

Turning compassion into a chance at life.

Behind every surgery is a child, a family, and the possibility of more birthdays, more laughter, and more tomorrows.

01

Find the children who need help

We focus on children with congenital heart defects whose families face financial barriers to essential surgery.

02

Help make surgery possible

Donor contributions support the cost of life-saving procedures so financial hardship does not have to be the final obstacle.

03

Give a child a tomorrow

Each child helped is a life-changing story—and a reminder of what collective kindness can do.
