Our focus is to prevent the preventable – heart disease and stroke – amongst all South Africans. In South Africa these are the second biggest killers after HIV/Aids.  Due to unhealthy lifestyles, every family is touched by preventable heart disease and stroke, and we are losing our loved ones too early.

The Heart and Stroke Foundation South Africa (HSFSA) is dependent on the financial support of individuals and corporates to continue our vital work in fighting heart disease and stroke, saving lives, and supporting those affected by these lifestyle diseases.

Your support allows us to offer free community education and health screening programmes to the underprivileged.
