- [Narrator] Hey kids!
Did you know that heart disease is
the leading cause of death in America?
80% of risk factors for heart disease are preventable
and we can change that with your help.
Our goal is to increase your knowledge
of how your heart works and the best way to take care of it,
so you can live a long, heart healthy life.
The Kids Heart Challenge teaches you jump rope skills
and how nutrition and physical activity
can help you live a longer, healthier life.
The easiest way to help raise funds
for the American Heart Association
is by going online to www.heart.org/kidsheartchallenge
or via the app on your mobile phone or tablet.
Get your parents to help you post
your Kids Heart Challenge webpage to Facebook and Twitter.
To help you raise fund and help kids with sick hearts
and you can earn awesome thank you gifts.
Send a message out to challenge others
to choose water instead of sugary drinks,
play for 60 minutes each day,
or eat a fruit and veggie with every meal.
Don't forget to share your story with others.
Personalize your kids heart challenge site
with reason why you're supporting
the American Heart Association
and then share your page to help us raise funds
to help kids with sick hearts.
The money you raise for Kids Heart Challenge
will pay for research that gives kids
the chance to survive and live a healthy life.
That's what we're working towards
and we thank you for being a part of our team
and our mission.
