Charity Overview
Heart Research Australia funds and supports first-stage, innovative research into the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of heart disease - Australia's biggest killer. This type of research does not receive statutory funding, but relies entirely on the financial support of the community, individuals, trusts and foundations, corporate organisations and fundraising campaigns.
Heart Research Australia’s funding enables researchers to test innovative ideas derived from their experiences as cardiologists, thereby contributing to pioneering advances in the fight against heart disease. The charity’s goal is to reduce the devastating impact heart disease has on families and communities across Australia.
