Following a successful heart transplant, Carroll
Shelby founded the Carroll Shelby Children’s Foundation in October of 1991. The
foundation’s mission was to provide assistance for acute coronary and kidney
care for young people who share many of the same afflictions. In 2009, the
foundation expanded its reach and became the Carroll Shelby Foundation (CSF)
helping kids from their first heartbeat through their education years.
Over 109,000 men, women and children are currently on the
national transplant waiting list. 17 people die each day waiting for an organ
transplant. That can change with the help of the Carroll Shelby Foundation.
To date the Carroll Shelby Foundation has helped numerous
children undergo major coronary surgeries and help charities worldwide raise
money for their own fundraising campaigns and provided money to launch
healthcare programs and facilities. The Foundation also provides grants to
organizations conducting research in the fields or coronary and organ
transplant management
Not only does CSF provide medical help, but it also
provides scholarship money to kids dedicated to enhancing their lives through
opportunities in the automotive industry.
