Youth 4 Heart (Y4H)

About Youth 4 Heart...

Y4H has 2 main objectives: To spread heart disease awareness and to encourage action. The leading cause of death in the U.S. AND the world across all ages and races is heart disease. Heart disease can be caused for many reasons such as a lack of exercise, eating unhealthily, or taking too much stress and all of these things are what many students go through. Most people don’t realize that heart disease often starts young. Poor diet, lack of exercise, and chronic stress — habits many students develop in high school — can quietly damage the heart over time. Our club focuses mainly on preventing these three factors from happening to students.
