Whether you know it or not, we are all somehow connected to a child suffering from a life threatening heart illness. Families are struggling and the Erika Kate Foundation can make a difference. You can help.

Join the 6 Degrees of EKF Campaign!


1. Tell 6 people about EKF and ask them to tell their friends, families, and colleagues about EKF.

2. Invite them to register on EKF’s website and become friends of EKF on Facebook.
3. Make an ongoing monthly contribution of $10 via one of the methods posted on the ‘Donate Now’ section of our website.
