The Aspen Foundation is proud to be partnering once again with Moonshine Agency to bring the next chapter in the Take Heart story to audiences across Australia and the world.
Take Heart has been placing the spotlight on Rheumatic Heart Disease in our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders population - a life-threatening disease that is 100% preventable.
The original 2016 documentary focused on the problem. Whereas the sequel will provide hope in what the solution to that problem looks like.
A new scholarship at the University of Newcastle has been established by the Aspen Foundation to support Indigenous students in completing a degree in Nursing or Social Work.
The Aspen Foundation is delighted to continue its support to rid Australia of Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) by supporting a screening of Take Heart: The Quest to Rid Australasia of Rheumatic Heart Disease at the University of Canberra. The screening will take place on 03 May 2019.
The work of the IEHU is supported by Aspen Medical through the Aspen Foundation. The Foundation’s mission is to significantly reduce or eradicate key illnesses in the Australian community.
In 2009 the Aspen Foundation partnered with the University of Melbourne’s Indigenous Eye Health Unit led by Professor Hugh Taylor and the Christian Blind Mission, to eradicate Trachoma in the Indigenous population.
