    Description

    Use your superb Admin/Research/and People Skills to help Safeguard Young Hearts!

    THE CHAD FOUNDATION FOR ATHLETES AND ARTISTS is seeking Volunteers with excellent Admin/Research/and People Skills to advocate for hospitals across the US to institute "Heart Screening Programs for Young Athletes and Students to Prevent Sudden Cardiac Arrest." 6,000 young people between the ages of 15 and 34 die annually from SCD. Preventive Heart Screenings can detect unknown heart anomalies and premature risk factors, like hypertension, diabetes, and obesity in the young. CHAD has provided 10,000 Echocardiogram and EKG screenings to help save young lives; its future focus is to expand the number of heart screenings and maximize the number of young people screened by partnering with Hospitals that already have state-of-the-art heart screening equipment, medical facilities, and follow-up medical staff in place. Today, several hospitals nationwide have successfully initiated heart screening programs to detect unknown anomalies in athletes and students. Your dedication and skill set can help us safeguard hearts in a major way by researching hospitals that are in the forefront of preventive screenings for young people. Medical background is a plus, but just as important is a passion and interest to help keep young hearts healthy through early detection, so they can lead long lives and achieve their dreams. The capacity to make US phone calls and general internet research is required. We are seeking volunteers who will form a dynamic team that can dedicate and commit to 5 to 7 hours a month as the project is ongoing. This is an excellent research project for undergrads in public health services.

    We invite you to visit our new website that will launch soon: https://chad-foundation-website.vercel.app/.Thank you for your interest in safeguarding young hearts. Please include a resume and in the body of your email, what piques your interest in this project. We look forward to hearing from you.

    THE CHAD FOUNDATION FOR ATHLETES AND ARTISTS, a nonprofit foundation, was founded to inspire youth to live as its namesake, Chad Butrum, did- anti-substance abuse and alcohol-free, "Healthy body/mind/ spirit." (Chad never smoked a cigarette or drank an alcoholic beverage his entire Life.) He loved athletics, was a great supporter of the arts, and loved all people, caring about the dreams and potential of all those he encountered. At the age of 26, Chad died suddenly of Sudden Cardiac Death in Young Athletes while playing football in CA, with no prior history of heart disease.

    From the Heart,
