Helping Hearts. Olyvia. Heart hero/survivor, 3rd grade. Olyvia will be 9 this month and has such a passion for life. She enjoys going to school and is friends with everyone. Although she has had many health setbacks in her life, she doesn't let that stop her from enjoying everyday. She celebrates everyday and brings us joy and laughter. She has been through multiple open heart surgeries, and had her very own pacemaker. Two things that Olyvia really enjoys are singing and dancing, so if you ever meet her, don't be afraid to join in. The American Heart Challenge funds research that helps kids, like Olyvia, have longer and stronger lives. Your support helps families like Olyvia's have hope and for that they are so grateful. Together, we are creating a world of longer, healthier lives!

Bea Underwood Elementary School has kicked off the American Heart Association’s KIDS HEART CHALLENGE (KHC) with students watching THIS KHC VIDEO to meet this year’s Heart Heroes and bring home information about Kids Heart Challenge.

Our campus goal is to raise $5,000.00 in donations to fight heart diseases and stroke and have 100% of families learn hands-only CPR.

Bonus Fun!

If 50% of the school COMPLETES Finn's Mission we will receive DOUBLE the givebacks to purchase new PE equipment! If we hit this goal students who complete Finn's Mission will get to attend a special GLOW IN THE DARK party!!

When you raise $50 you are invited ON COURT at a Denver Nuggets game!!

Raise $150 and earn a special Frankie keychain for being a leader in our school!

 Students who are registered and have an online donation by Monday will be entered into a drawing with other students across the country for a Large Squishmallow or a $50 Amazon Gift Certificate and earn some of this year’s Heart Heroes!

Your students can earn this year’s heart heroes by registering: www.heart.org/khc  or downloading the Kids Heart Challenge app! Your family can learn hands only CPR by starting Finn’s Mission after your register!
