DURHAM, N.C. – Year two of the Big Sets for Little Hearts program is set to commence as the 2025-26 Duke men's and women's tennis seasons gets started. The program benefits the Duke Children's Hospital Pediatric and Congenital Heart Center.
In the first year of the Big Sets for Little Hearts program, the Blue Devils raised $10,112.20 in earnings for the kids. The program is accepting donations for 2025-26 and fans can get involved by clicking here.
Big Sets for Little Hearts pledges are made based on the number of sets won by the men's and women's tennis programs. During the 2024-25 season, the two teams combined to win a total of 824 sets.
The women's team opens the season by competing in the Kitty Harrison Invitational Sept. 12-14 in Chapel Hill, while the men's program kicks off action Sept. 12-14 at the Orange and Blue Classic in Charlottesville, Virginia.
If you are interested in supporting Blue Devil tennis' partnership with Duke Children's, you can pledge for each set won during the season or make a one-time donation. Pledges start at $0.10, $0.50, $1.00 and $2.50. Based on last year's results, the smallest pledged donation would be equal to $64.70. One-time donations are always welcome as well.
The Duke Children's Pediatric and Congenital Heart Center is the No. 2 ranked pediatric cardiology and heart surgery program in the United States for newborns and children with congenital and acquired heart disease. The Duke Pediatric and Congenital Heart Center strives to improve its patients' outcomes and the quality of their lives.
To be able to accomplish this, the center achieves some of the highest survival rates in the U.S. in very sick patients who require advanced, complex care. The Heart Center performed more than 450 heart operations in 2023, including significantly more complicated procedures when compared to other centers across the country. The Duke Pediatric and Congenital Heart Center was the first to successfully perform several new approaches to pediatric heart transplant surgery, including donation after cardiac death transplantation, partial heart transplantation, combination heart and thymus transplantation. They pioneered new surgical techniques that lower risk and ensure heart surgery is better tolerated by the tiniest babies.
