Organizations Filed Purposes:
THE PURPOSE OF THE JACKSON HEART FOUNDATION IS TO LEAD THE FIGHT AGAINST HEART DISEASE IN OUR COMMUNITY THROUGH EDUCATION, PREVENTION, AND EARLY DETECTION.
GET HEART SMART OUTREACH PROGRAM WITH THE MS CHILDREN'S MUSEUM - THE OUTREACH PROGRAM IS A TRAVELING EXHIBIT THAT TEACHES CHILDREN HOW THE HEART PUMPS BLOOD THROUGH THE CHAMBERS AND THE IMPORTANCE OF HAVING A HEALTHY CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM. THE INTERACTIVE PROGRAM CONSISTS OF A LARGE FLOOR MAT THAT MAPS OUT THE HEART AND ALLOWS CHILDREN THE OPPORTUNITY TO PUT ON BLUE AND RED VESTS AND RUN THE HEART ON THE MAT AS EITHER OXYGEN OR BLOOD. THE FUNDS WILL CONTINUE TO ALLOW THE MISSISSIPPI CHILDREN'S MUSEUM TO USE THE EXHIBIT WITH DIFFERENT SCHOOLS AND BOYS AND GIRLS CLUBS. SINCE LAUNCHING THIS PROGRAM IN 2013, MORE THAN 1,100 STUDENTS VISITING THE MUSEUM AND 3,500 CHILDREN FROM ACROSS THE STATE HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS HANDS-ON, EDUCATIONAL, AND FUN PROGRAM.
MISSION FIRST-FUNDS ARE RAISED TO PURCHASE AND INSTALL PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT FOR AN EARLY LEARNING CENTER. THE PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT WILL PROVIDE MANY CHILDREN WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO PLAY OUTSIDE AND ENCOURAGE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IN A SAFE PLAY ENVIRONMENT.
