Providing fully-funded heart screenings to Kansas City’s underserved youth in partnership with a local Kansas City organization (ATS).  Our screenings include all of the tests vital to analyzing the health of a child’s heart: blood pressure, electrocardiogram, and an echocardiogram. The Foundation has already held two events that have benefited over 60 children in the Kansas City ares.  The Foundation is next partnering with the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Kansas City to administer fully-funded heart screenings in June 2019 at three different locations throughout the greater Kansas City area.

Donating a portion of the proceeds to Children’s Mercy Congenital Heart Defect Family Support Fund to provide much needed assistance to children and families suffering from congenital heart defects, such as medical equipment and supplies for home use, adaptive strollers, cribs, assistance with funeral expenses and transportation costs for travel to other centers of excellence. Over the last two years, with the help of our sponsors, we were able to donate $70,000 to help the patients and families at Children’s Mercy.
