DEAR PARENT OR GUARDIAN,
When your student joins the Kids Heart Challenge, not only will they raise funds to help kids — and all people — with special hearts, they’ll also learn about their heart health. Activities and interactive technologies make it fun to learn how to keep your heart and brain strong and emphasize both physical and emotional wellness. Plus, your school can earn PE equipment.
With heartfelt thanks,
The American Heart Association
Finn, Second grade
Finn was born with multiple heart defects and spent the first eight months of his life in the hospital. Finn has had 18 heart surgeries and last year underwent a customized procedure to correct his special heart anatomy and give him the gift of life. Today, an energetic Finn loves to have fun.
