In Romania, more than 1500 babies with congenital heart defects are born every year.
The state medical system only funds around 700 life-saving surgeries, while the rest of them end up on a long waiting list. And waiting can be fatal in some cases.
The Heart of Children, an association which is constantly struggling to save all children's lives, needed more doctors to sew babies' hearts, thus more people to help the cause.
But how?
By transforming real people into artisan surgeons, with the help of The Heart Sewing Kit - a heart shaped brooch that you can sew by yourself.
In only one month, more than 6000 kits were sold, preparing surgeries for over 40 babies. And more are yet to come.
