Fh Foundation

The Family Heart Foundation, based in South Pasadena, CA, is dedicated to preventing heart disease across generations through the timely identification and treatment of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and elevated lipoprotein(a) levels. By pioneering research, advocacy, and education, the organization empowers families to navigate their health and significantly reduce their risk of heart attacks and strokes.

With a focus on awareness and community support, the Family Heart Foundation aims to increase screening and diagnosis rates, as current estimates indicate that less than 1.1% of individuals with elevated lipoprotein(a) levels are ever tested. Committed to saving lives, the foundation actively engages in initiatives, events, and research to foster a deeper understanding of these hereditary conditions and their impact on heart health.
