Starting a Chapter

Anyone can start a chapter to bring the Young Hearts mission to their area! Chapters can be started as clubs in middle or high schools, or out of school for those who have graduated. To have a verified Young Hearts Chapter, you must host at least 2 events benefiting local hospitals per year. Possibilities for these events include book/craft drives to benefit libraries in local hospitals and fundraisers where the money is donated to hospitals or organizations that benefit patients in those hospitals. At least 2 people need to be interested to start a Young Hearts Med Club. For more information, see our Club Handbook (linked below).
