Heart Screening

We provide free heart screenings for youth (ages 8-17) to detect heart abnormalities that can result in sudden cardiac arrest. Detection consist of ECG, ECHO, blood pressure, height/weight and family history questionnaire. This is the foundation’s most important life-saving event. We partner with Youth Heart Watch of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. Dr. Vetter and a team of volunteers donate their time to make this event possible each year. Our success in early detection findings every year pushes us to continue in this life-saving work.
