Donate now
Every donation powers work that saves lives affected by heart and lung disease in Aotearoa - funding research, improving care, and supporting families when they need it most.
That’s Sharon - a mum, and our Community Education Manager. I wish her story was unique, unfortunately it isn’t.
When we surveyed more than 11,000 rangatahi across Aotearoa, what they told us was not just concerning, but alarming
- More than one in ten are vaping.
- Nearly half say they feel addicted.
- Some are even waking during the night because their bodies are craving it.
This isn’t just experimentation anymore. It’s addiction - and it’s putting young lungs and young hearts at risk.
Right now, another young person is picking up a vape - often without understanding the risks. But with your help, someone in their world could be ready to listen, guide and change their path.
Donate today and help protect young hearts and lungs.
