The Israel Healthy Heart Foundation is Israel’s leading nonprofit organization dedicated to reducing illness and mortality from cardiovascular disease — the world’s leading cause of death. The Foundation was established by a group of leading cardiologists, with the support of the Israel Heart Society, with the goal of creating real change through the advancement of research, medical innovation, and improved quality of life for patients and their families.

Its activities are made possible through donations and income from research conducted for various organizations, and it operates as a nonprofit institution.
The Foundation’s activities, research initiatives, and supported projects are determined by the members of its General Assembly and Board of Directors, which include senior cardiologists and department heads in the field in Israel.
