HeartCharged was co-founded by sisters, Bethany & Hannah Keime. Their journey includes an unexpected diagnosis of a deadly heart condition in their teens. Undiagnosed, such conditions can lead to sudden cardiac arrest which kills almost 200 youth yearly in Miami-Dade County alone and which is the leading killer of student athletes. Their treatment has included implanted defibrillators. Hannah has survived sudden cardiac arrest. With gratitude, they have built a multi-award-winning organization working in our community and around the globe to end preventable deaths from undiagnosed heart conditions and sudden cardiac arrest and providing patient-to-patient support.
