Coordinate an Event

Why do a Hoops For Heart event? Why not! Hoops is a terrific program that teaches children how to live a healthy, active lifestyle. It is easy to run, fun for all, and most importantly it contributes to saving lives in the fight against heart disease and stroke, our nation's number one and three killers.
