Heartbeat celebrates its annual gala dinner at Casino de Liban

During a May night of music and fashion at the Casino de Liban, many supporters joined together for the life-saving Heartbeat Association.

A group of doctors of Hotel-Dieu de France established the Heartbeat Association in 2005 to help children with congenital heart disease, and overcome the financial barriers to treatment. More than 240 surgical operations were concluded in 2013, restoring children back to a happy, active childhood, and giving the family a healthy child to nurture.
