THANKS FOR VISITING THE ZIPPER BUDDY WEBSITE!

Zipper Buddy Foundation raises awareness and provides philanthropic support for families facing a medical challenge due to a child with a CHD. Through planned charitable events, partnerships with individual donors, organizations and corporations, we raise funds to help ease the burden. Together, we are committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of children and families facing the same journey we did and continue to face.

Brady was born in December 2023 with a congenital heart defect called TGA- transposition of the Great Arteries. He was in the NICU and then transferred to the cardiac intensive care unit, the CCVCU, at NYU’s Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital. A long 5 weeks later, Brady underwent open heart surgery to repair his heart defect and thankfully it was a success.
