About The Gift of Life Foundation
The concept for the Gift of Life program began in 1974 when the Manhasset Rotary Club of Long Island brought five-year-old Grace Agwara on a 5000 mile journey to Roslyn, New York, where she underwent a successful four-hour open heart surgical procedure at St. Francis Hospital and received the gift of life. This event developed into a dynamic worldwide movement involving both Rotarians and countless other community organizations. The Rotary District 7490 Gift of Life Foundation (GOL), founded in 1986 by the Rotary Clubs of Bergen, Passaic and Hudson Counties in New Jersey, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation created for the purpose of providing life saving cardiac surgeries to children from around the world. In addition to providing surgeries for these children performed both domestically and abroad, GOL also works in their home countries to educate the medical profession, provide medical equipment, and raise the standards of living thus lowering the potential incidence of congenital heart defects.
