Ellen Boyer: The Brett Boyer Foundation is supporting groundbreaking heart research & saving lives

The Brett Boyer Foundation is a 501c3 that was co-founded by Ellen Boyer, her husband Bo, sister-in-law Caroline and brother-in-law Luke Bryan.

It was created in memory Ellen and Bo's daughter, Sadie Brett Boyer who was diagnosed prenatally with Down syndrome and a congenital heart defect (CHD). In her short 7 months she spent most of that time at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital and inspired the entire movement and purpose to help others.

The Foundation's mission is to fund congenital heart disease research, data, give support and resources to patients, families and providers and to celebrate the Down Syndrome community. They provide financial support, clothing, meals, therapy sessions, mental health support, and groundbreaking trials. Their work has helped support and save 100s of babies.
