Your gift can help progress research targeted at understanding heart disease and uncovering treatments tailored to women.
We all have special women in our lives. Mums, sisters, daughters, partners and friends. Heart disease is a very real threat to the health of these women.
22 women lose their lives to heart disease every single day in Australia.
By making a donation to heart research, you can help protect their hearts.
To help prevent this from happening to the women you love, the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute is:
- Conducting research into heart diseases like Spontaneous artery dissection (SCAD) and fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) which are known to very rarely affect men
- Understanding the key genetic differences between women and men and why heart disease affects them differently, including heart attack
- Ultimately paving the way for sex-specific therapies and treatments that aren’t ‘one size fits all’
Let the women in your life know their heart health matters to you by making a generous gift to heart research today.
