ABOUT THE RONNY TURIAF FOUNDATION
The Ronny Turiaf Heart to Heart Foundation was established in August 2009 to provide medical care for children who do not have health insurance and can not afford the care that they so desperately need. The goal of the Heart to Heart Foundation is to raise money to provide health services including EKG’s, heart surgeries and defibrillators to children and schools in need. Ronny Turiaf understands what it is like to need medical care for your heart and not have money. When his own situation was discovered Ronny was just out of college and could not pay for the surgery. He was however fortunate enough that some people came to his aid, and now he is in a position where he can do the same thing for children and adults who need heart care and can not afford it.
MISSION STATEMENT
The Ronny Turiaf Foundation’s mission is “to provide support, including echo cardiograms to people with heart related issues so they can live a healthy and happy life.”
