Congenital heart defects are the foremost birth defect in the United States, making research into diagnosing, treating and preventing them of vital importance. In addition, families with children affected need information and emotional support as they learn to deal with this difficult reality and its ramifications. Agora Gallery is proud to support the Children’s Heart Foundation, which contributes to both of these crucial areas. As part of our commitment to helping art make the world a better place, Agora Gallery donates 15% of its proceeds from the sale of artwork from the art competition exhibition to the CHF.
