It trains doctors, builds and support cardio-surgical paediatric centres in the most deprived areas of the world and provides health care to children affected by heart dysfunctions. It was founded by Professor Alessandro Frigiola, currently heart surgeon of the paediatric unit in IRCCS San Donato Hospital in Milan. The association counts on a voluntary staff of more than 150 people (surgeons, physicians, assistants and technicians). It is active in deprived areas in order to give a life hope to children with heart diseases. The charity is active also in war zones including Syria and Iraqi Kurdistan with facilities in aid of refugees.
