JRFH Mia in Malibu

Students of Point Dume Marine Science School made a big leap in its efforts to fight heart disease and stroke through Jump Rope For Heart. More than 300 students celebrated JRFH’s 35th birthday, raising more than $5,000 just in their first week of fundraising, far exceeding the $60 they generated last year. A special shout out to school principal Rebecca Johnson who championed the efforts and did a remarkable job educating students about cardiovascular disease and encouraging them to participate. Learn more from this article that came out in Malibu Surfside News.
