It is described as an irregular rhythm originating in the top chambers of the heart, the atria. It has a major impact on a person's quality of life and can be a predisposition to heart failure and stroke. AF increases the risk of stroke up to 5 times that of the general population and thes

We successfully raised our annual $20,000 for Dr. Rod Passman at the Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago to support the Afib research work he & his team continue to do on a world class level. Dr. Passman received a grant from the NIH in 2022 for $37M for a large scale, multi-center research trial for 7 years. The Zoe Foundation has been actively involved in supporting this effort since 2011 & are thrilled with the potential for all those who will benefit from the outcome of this game changing research.
