When life falls apart,
no one should feel alone.
There are moments in life when everything changes
in an instant. A diagnosis, an accident, a loss that
feels impossible to carry.
In those moments, people don’t just need help,
they need to know they’re not alone.
That’s where Heartworks begins.
Look Inward, Give Outward.
THIS IS OUR GUIDING BELIEF
Heartworks is a local movement of women committed to replicating and sustaining the kindness and connection witnessed in the wake of September 11, 2001. Inspired by the healing that takes place through compassionate giving and receiving, we offer hope to people experiencing acute illness, injury or grief.
This is an invitation to be a part of something that will change your life.
The Heartworks Story
The laid back, authentic vibe of Heartworks can be felt in this video. Hear what Heartworkers, Veterans and families we have met are saying about the power of receiving from Heartworks.
“I didn’t know kindness could work like this. Now I can’t imagine my life without it”
Heartworker, 12 years
