The Heart "Beet" of Jordan High 2011

This morning Jordan High Student leaders inspired their fellow 'Beetdiggers', to help gather pennies, dimes, dollars, and what-ever else they could mustard in an effort to raise money to help families and organizations associated with the #1 birth defect. Because of this, students selected the Paul Cardall Family Foundation for Congenital Disorders as their 2011 charity.

One of the school's rival Brighton High recently contributed $15,000 and challenged their neighbor Jordan High to try and "Beet" their hard work.

Needless to say, whether it's auctioning off a faculty parking spot right next to the school entrance or having a "Call of Duty Tournament" youth are excited to serve those in their community and have creative ways to gather funds. Students are buying t-shirts that proudly declare, "The Heart 'Beet' of Jordan 2011"

Student Leaders from both Brighton and Jordan High will represent their student body on February 14th at the 2nd Annual Celebrate Life Concert where they will be honored by Paul Cardall.

A silent auction will precede the the Concert. Students and their families associated with raising funds can purchase concert tickets for 50% off at the Jordan and Brighton High Main Offices.

The Paul Cardall Family Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization devoted to spreading public awareness, provide education, fund research, and assist fellow organizations and individuals associated with congenital heart disease and other related congenital disorders.

The Paul Cardall Family Foundation was created by popular musician and author Paul Cardall who survived 36 years on only a single ventricle until receiving a heart transplant on September 9, 2009. With gratitude to family and friends, Paul and his wife Lynnette have created the public Foundation in an effort to assist other individuals who are also affected by Congenital Heart Disease.
