Getting to the heart of the matter
A King’s Heart Foundation, a 501 (c) 3, non-profit organization provides resources and advocacy and care to ensure every individual has the opportunity to live a healthy and fulfilling life. Founded by King L. McClure, an athlete diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), and by his father Leroy McClure Jr., a stroke survivor, A King’s Heart Foundation was born out of personal experience. After overcoming significant health battles, they realized the need for more resources for athletes, survivors, and those dealing with the mental toll of chronic conditions.


Our mission
A King’s Heart Foundation is committed to improving the lives of athletes with heart conditions, stroke survivors, and individuals facing mental health challenges through innovative programs, education, and advocacy. We believe that with the right support, everyone can lead fulfilling lives, regardless of their health conditions.
Our vision
Our vision is to create a world where people with heart conditions, stroke survivors, and those living with mental health challenges have access to life-saving care, rehabilitation, and community support. We aim to transform lives and inspire hope through our specialized programs.
