About Us

Since 2000, the Illinois Heart & Lung Foundation has existed to provide education to both healthcare providers and community members and bring awareness to the community about cardiopulmonary and general health issues/needs.

We accomplish these goals through a variety of programs and special events such as Women’s Health Night. Thank you for learning more about the Illinois Heart and Lung Foundation.
