 Students at Armagh Elementary in Milroy are jumping at the chance to fight heart disease and stroke, our nation’s No. 1 and No. 3 killers. The event will take place on April 28, 2008. Mrs. Holland has volunteered to coordinate this year’s Jump Rope for Heart event.  It will be the first time the event has been held at Armagh in many years.

Students will jump rope to raise funds for the American Heart Association, which funds cardiovascular disease research and public and professional education programs.

 Jump Rope For Heart is co-sponsored by the American Heart Association and the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance.

 The average heart beats 100,000 times each day. One of the best ways to take care of your heart is to make exercise a regular part of your everyday life. Jump Rope For Heart teaches students how exercise benefits the heart and shows students that volunteering can be fun and beneficial to the whole community.  They learn how they can make a difference by providing important community service and having a great time at this fun-filled family event. 

Money raised by the event will go to fund potentially lifesaving research and educational and community programs. Please help our students help others. When a student asks you to be a sponsor, support Jump Rope For Heart with whatever you can afford to give. If you would like to help more, call your nearest American Heart Association office or call 1-800-AHA-USA1 (1-800-242-8721).
