I am Mersadie Barth, a passionate advocate dedicated to supporting families affected by congenital heart defects (CHD). Growing up in New Salem, North Dakota, and personally diagnosed with (ASD) and (VSD), I faced CHD challenges firsthand. These experiences, along with my daughter Malia’s journey with Truncus Arteriosus Type One with MAPCAs, inspire my mission to make a difference.
Founding Brave Hearts Children's Network Inc., I aim to build a supportive network offering essential resources, financial assistance, and community connections for families dealing with CHD. My skills and expertise in brand development and customer relations, equip me for effective CHD advocacy.
Through initiatives like the North Dakota Heart Warrior T-shirts campaign, I foster statewide awareness. Inspired by personal challenges and losses, my commitment remains steadfast: ensuring no family faces CHD challenges alone and driving meaningful community impact.
