About Miles of Love
Miles of Love is a nonprofit with a mission of providing comfort, hope, and financial support to families with a child born with a congenital heart defect (CHD). After losing our son, Miles, at 5-months old, Paul and I were dedicated to finding ways to support families who would walk a similar path to us.

Throughout our experience, we learned that cardiac care for an infant or child is often times far from home and comes with an extensive list of burdens that you do not see coming. We are focused on providing items and financial support to help ease these burdens for CHD families at CHKD and UVA Children's Hospital. You can read Miles' Story, the stories of other CHD patients, and a more detailed list of how we give back on our website Miles of Love.
