Overview

From its website

Victoria Ciara Foundation is a 100% volunteer-run nonprofit based in Alloway, New Jersey, dedicated to supporting individuals and families affected by Congenital Heart Disease (CHD). Founded by the Hegeman family after their daughter Victoria Ciara was born with multiple heart defects requiring four open-heart surgeries, the foundation provides financial assistance, wellness grants, resource referrals, and social connection opportunities. It serves CHD patients and their families primarily in New Jersey and the greater Philadelphia region, partnering with hospitals such as Nemours and CHOP to deliver comfort items like pillowcases and blankets to cardiac units. The organization also hosts fundraising events including an annual scrapbooking fundraiser and a Hoagies for Hearts campaign, and keeps administrative costs below 10% of its budget.
