Part of the 5 Rivers Heart Association.

Cardiologist Dr. Swaiman Singh founded the 5 Rivers Heart Association in California in 2012. Its name comes from Punjab, the land of five rivers, where the association has its roots. Its mission is for everyone: equal opportunity to healthcare and education for all.

Today, volunteer teams run free health camps in communities across the United States and Canada, and new teams keep forming. Team 5 Rivers Houston is one of them.
