Jump Rope for Heart on February 13th!

Students in Grades 3, 4 and 5 can participate in Jump Rope for Heart.

Students have been learning about heart health in class and they get to be HEART HEROS by raising money when asking family, friends, neighbors and parents to support them while they do activities in physical education classes. Each student will have the chance to collect pledges for the American Heart Association. All of your dollars fund outreach and research here in Iowa.  Donation envelopes will be sent home around February 1st.

We accept cash, checks (made out to the American Heart Association) or online donations. You child can create their own free, life-saving web page for online donations, here’s how: Go to www.heart.org/jump and click on REGISTER NOW.  Drop down to Iowa/ Des Moines and click on Park Ave. & Join Team.

Donation packets are to be turned in on the day of the event. Students earn prizes based on the amount of money they raise. An student who raises at least $5 will receive an Instant Duck on February 13th. Additional prizes will be distributed after the all money is counted and turned in to the American Heart Association.
