Dear Davis Families,
For the ninth year, we will be doing the Kids Heart Challenge (formerly known as Jump Rope for Heart) at Davis School. This program is in collaboration with the American Heart Association and coincides with our January health lesson on the heart/heart related fitness activities.
During the length of the program, (The kickoff week will occur January 27th-31st and will conclude, with online donations needing to be completed by Friday, March 7th) all Davis students are welcome to collect donations from family/friends. All donations collected will go directly to the American Heart Association. In return, at the conclusion of the program, any student who collected donations will receive American Heart Association thank you gifts.
Finn, now a fourth grader, was born with a special heart and has been working hard to help raise awareness and support for kids with special hearts just like him. Finn’s Mission challenges students and families to move more, be kind, help others, and learn the critical life saving skill of Hands-Only CPR!
Just follow these easy steps below to get started:
1. Register with our school: http://www2.heart.org/goto/LtEleazerDavisSchool
2. Complete Finn’s Mission: Here is more information to understand what is Finn`s mission and how to complete it. https://vimeo.com/1037554184/277fec167f?ts=0&share=copy ; https://www2.heart.org/site/DocServer/KHC_Parent_Letter_ENG.pdf
3. Share your KHC fundraiser with friends and family through social media, text and/or email.
Last year, due to our students’ hard work, we raised over $19,000 which assisted the American Heart Association with their research in curing various ailments of the heart!
The Kids Heart Challenge is a voluntary program and students are in no way obligated to participate. However, all students, whether they raise donations or not, will learn about the goals of the program during our January kick off week. All donations will be made online, please do not send any form of donations to school with your child.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out directly to Mr. Ientile (dean_ientile@bedfordps.org)
We feel this is a great opportunity to show our Davis students how we can help people in need who live outside our own Bedford community.
Thank you in advance for your support!
