Why this petition matters

Started by Melissa Strawn

We have an epidemic that is needlessly claiming the lives of our youth every day and it can be prevented!  SafeBeat is a 501c3 foundation with a mission to “Screen Hearts, Save Lives” and create a healthier generation!  We provide preventative heart screenings to public middle/high school children and it is for all active children…not just the registered athlete. Sudden Cardiac Arrest is the #1 killer among young student athletes and on school campuses of which most cases can be prevented!  According to American Heart Association, there are approximately 7,000+ needless deaths every year between the ages of 6-18 due to sudden cardiac arrest!  SafeBeat is the answer to help reduce these needless deaths.

SafeBeat was born out of love and honor for our Founder’s son Marc. Jayne Vining’s precious little boy passed away from an undetected congenital heart defect. Our 501c3 Foundation started to help keep families from suffering the pain and loss Jayne had to experience. Families should not be suffering the loss of a child due to detectable and often treatable conditions that lead to SCA. It is our mission to provide high-quality preventative heart screenings to middle school, high school, and college students to reduce sudden cardiac death in youth by detecting these underlying conditions before they become fatal. SafeBeat is setting the gold standard in preventative heart screenings in America's youth through innovation, education, and strategic partnerships. But we need your help in order to be successful. 

We need to create more awareness and more supporting partners. We work very hard to educate and compel parents, guardians, teachers, and communities to get involved and “take action” against this silent killer that is taking the lives of our innocent children. We need more kindred spirits to partner with us to make our vision of eradicating this needless, long-standing epidemic to be a thing of the past and create a heart healthy generation.

Please help us prevent these types of deaths from occurring. For as little as $1 per week, you can support preventative heart screenings and save a life! It only takes a minute to donate. Help us save a child's life today. Thank you!
