The purpose of the Robin Schlesinger Adult Congenital Heart Endowment is to enhance ACHA’s programs to make adults living with congenital heart disease (CHD) and the general public more aware of the need for specialized lifelong care and to help patients obtain this care. The investment earnings of the Endowment Fund will be used to provide annual grants in Robin's name to be designated for one or more of three ACHA programs, two which are longstanding and one under development.
- Improving ACHA’s website
- Broadening the Heart to Heart Peer Mentor Program
- Exploring the feasibility of skilled patient navigation services
