Mackay is teaming up with the American Heart Association and the Kids Heart Challenge. ♥️ Our students had an amazing assembly yesterday and learned all about Finn’s Mission- and how they can get involved to raise money as well as awareness for heart health.

This program is designed to promote physical and emotional well-being among our students and empower them with life-saving knowledge about heart health. By clicking on the link below, you will be able to register to learn about Finn’s Mission and how your student can get involved!  We have set a Mackay goal to raise $3000 for the American Heart Association.  Students can earn prizes for not only raising money but for learning CPR and healthy living strategies too!  Make sure you register soon!
