The Kawasaki Disease Foundation Australia is proud to collaborate with other Australian and overseas organisations that can offer support to our KD Community.
HeartKids
We are thrilled to have worked with HeartKids to have information about Kawasaki Disease and details of our website included as part of their new website (see links below),
HeartKids is the only national not-for-profit organisation solely focused on supporting and advocating for all people impacted by childhood heart disease, one of the largest causes of infant death in Australia.
Many KD kids are also heart kids and we collaborate with HeartKids to help them and their families to lead the most fulfilling life possible and to reach their personal goals.
