Heartworks, a registered 501(c)(3) charity, continues the kindness that began on September 11, 2001 by encouraging and facilitating giving to people who are living with a new diagnosis or health crisis, or who are in the early stages of grief. Because we are a small local organization with limited resources it helps us if we can have a direct connection to those we help. This means that we look for a family member or friend to refer to us with direct contact with the family. We ask those that refer someone to us to come to a meeting to best understand who we are and how we can help.
