Saving Hearts Foundation
Saving Hearts Foundation (SHF) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit chapter-based organization that provides free heart screenings to students and young adults aged 12 – 26 in underserved, low socioeconomic communities to test for warning signs of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) – the #1 cause of death in student athletes and #4 cause of death in individuals under the age of 25. Since 2014, SHF has partnered with prominent organizations, such as the Parent Heart Watch, Eric Paredes Save a Life Foundation, and Sudden Cardiac Arrest Foundation, and screened over 4500 students from over 25 high schools across 2 states (California and Virginia). Through our efforts thus far, we have helped to detect high-risk features for SCA in 73 students (~1.5% detection rate) who may otherwise not have received or could afford a heart exam.
