A game. A moment. A pause.

---

Peripartum Cardiomyopathy (PPCM) doesn’t just affect the heart — it interrupts life.

It steals time to be believed. Time with newborns. Time for answers. Sometimes, time to live.

This page is an invitation. Not pressure. Not guilt. Just a moment, your moment, to give time back to mothers and families affected by PPCM.

1. Look at the clock right now.
2. Donate whatever time it is in your state.

Examples:

• 7:14 → $7.14
• 10:32 → $10.32
• 3:05 → $3.05

Optional ways to give more meaning:

• Round up to honor a PPCM survivor
• Double your time in memory of a mother lost

Small moments add up. Together, they save lives.

PPCM affects approximately 1 in 1,000 to 4,000 incidences in the U.S.

Too often, symptoms like shortness of breath, chest pain, swelling, and extreme fatigue are dismissed as anxiety or “normal postpartum recovery.”

By the time PPCM is diagnosed, many mothers are already in heart failure.

Your donation supports:

• PPCM awareness and education
• Early recognition of warning signs
• Survivor and family resources
• Advocacy for maternal cardiac safety

Let’s Talk PPCM was founded by survivors and families who know firsthand what it means to live, laugh, and love with broken hearts.

We believe no mother should have to fight to be heard while her heart is failing.

Your time helps us:

• Reach hospitals and providers
• Equip families with life-saving information
• Ensure mothers are not navigating PPCM alone

You’re not alone — many supporters want to help but aren’t sure what amount truly makes a difference. That’s exactly why this campaign exists.

Giving your time removes the guesswork. There’s no “right” or “wrong” amount here — only intention.

Still, if it helps to see what your gift can do, here’s how moments add up:

• $5–$10 helps us reach more families online with PPCM education
• $15–$25 supports printed education and awareness materials
• $30–$50 helps equip survivor and family resource efforts
• $100+ helps us move closer to placing life-saving information into hospitals

Every dollar, every minute, supports our mission to ensure mothers are heard, believed, and diagnosed sooner.

Donate the amount shown on your clock or give any amount that feels meaningful to you.

After you give, we invite you to:

• Follow LetsTalkPPCM on our media sites for updates
• Subscribe to our emailing list

Because PPCM steals time, but together, we give it back.

Whether you donate, share this page, or learn something new, you are part of the change.
