Jump Rope For Heart

We have started our Jump Rope For Heart event and it will be taking place over the next two weeks. This week kicks off the event where students are being introduced to why we do Jump Rope For Heart and how they can help the cause. Each student will receive a packet to go home if they want to try and collect donations for the event. Every donation goes to the American Heart Association for research and helping those with heart problems.

If you want to join our team online here is the online link:

Thanks for the support!



About the American Heart Association


The American Heart Association is the nation’s oldest, largest voluntary organization devoted to fighting cardiovascular diseases and stroke.


Founded by six cardiologists in 1924, our organization now includes more than 22.5 million volunteers and supporters working tirelessly to eliminate these diseases. We fund innovative research, fight for stronger public health policies and provide lifesaving tools and information to save and improve lives.


Our nationwide organization includes 144 local offices and nearly 2,700 employees. We moved our national headquarters from New York to Dallas in 1975 to be more centrally located. The American Stroke Association was created as a division in 1997 to bring together the organization’s stroke-related activities.


Our Mission: Building healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke. Our mission drives everything we do.


What We Do: To improve the lives of all Americans, we provide public health education in a variety of ways.
