We are living in a time of almost unbelievable ignorance about Cardiovascular diseases in Africa, Healthy Heart Foundation is a not-for-profit foundation, dedicated to raising awareness of heart disease prevention by spreading the word to protect your heart and save your life.

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death globally accounting for 17.9 million lives every year. The good news is if individuals know their risk and take the necessary steps, most cardiovascular diseases are preventable.

Although heart disease is typically diagnosed in adulthood, its roots are often found in childhood. Compelling research has shown that plaque buildup in the arterial walls begins very early in life and progresses through increasing degrees of atherosclerosis. Intervention strategies and healthy lifestyle changes to reduce heart disease risk should begin early when reversal of the process is easier, not later in life when the disease is more fully developed.

HHF provides education to the community, corporations, schools, social clubs, and individuals to promote heart disease awareness, detection, and prevention. To more effectively reduce the risk of a heart attack, early identification of risk factors is critical. By identifying individuals who are at risk of experiencing a coronary event, early intervention can save their lives.
