heARTs for ART was created to honor the memory of Samantha Schmidt, who bravely fought leukemia and we continue for the children who are currently fighting leukemia and those that will be diagnosed tomorrow.
As a 10-year-old, Samantha asked that we raise money so that "other kids don't get sick" and heARTs for ART works to accomplish this in two ways. The first way is through supporting research for pediatric leukemia at Cook Children's Hospital, since beginning in 2012. The second way is our Family Transportation Program designed to assist families with the cost of commuting to and from hospital and doctor visits. This program began in 2018 with Children's Health Dallas.
