Congenital heart defect (CHD) is the most common type of birth defect, and it is the leading cause of infant mortality in China. Approximately 216,000 infants with CHD are born every year; many of these children don’t receive timely treatment due to their families’ inability to pay for the heart surgery. In 2018, the Greater China Children’s Heart Fund (GCCHF) provided critical heart surgeries to 1,454 children with congenital heart defect (CHD) and provided 20,621 children with free screenings–480 were diagnosed as CHD. Over the course of 2018, 131 volunteers accompanied 393 children with CHD for 524 hours of their screenings and treatment.

Funding primarily comes from Nu Skin’s commitment to donate US $0.25 from the sale of each Epoch® Glacial Marine Mud product to EBMRF. Nu Skin Korea sales leaders also generously donate money to support EB patients and research at Gangnam Hospital.
