The Mended Hearts, Inc. is a nonprofit organization based in Albany, Georgia, that operates the world’s largest peer-to-peer cardiovascular support network. It serves heart disease patients, their families, and caregivers through in-person visiting programs, education, support groups, and online communities, with operations spanning hundreds of hospitals and rehab centers across North America. The organization emphasizes a community-based approach to help members navigate life after a heart disease diagnosis, providing connection, information, and ongoing peer support through its chapters and related initiatives. In addition to its core patient support network, Mended Hearts runs related programs for families of children born with congenital heart defects and offers age-targeted peer support for young adults, reflecting a broader mission to address the needs of various cardiovascular experiences. A notable recent development is the organization’s collaboration with industry partners and healthcare systems to raise awareness and support for cardiovascular and kidney health through joint campaigns and programs.
