The stats
1
Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) is the leading cause of death in sports and on school campuses.
2
1 in 300 youth have an undetected heart condition that puts them at risk for SCA.
3
The most effective way to detect these heart conditions is with an electrocardiogram (ECG) screening and in some cases an echocardiogram.
4
SCA is the first symptom of any cardiac abnormality in half of the incidences.

Bliss by J. Santiago
Bliss is a fictional story loosely based on the story of Who We Play For. The dream is to use this powerful narrative as a tipping point behind a national movement to deliver ECG heart screenings for our student athletes.
We challenge you to turn the page and join the fight to end preventable tragedies by bringing heart screening to your community. Together, we have the power to demand heart screenings as a common sense standard of care.
