Liberty High School (Renton, WA)

Liberty High School will turn red on Thursday, January 31, 2013 when Liberty  fans hold their first "Red Out for Heart" in the spirit of raising awareness about heart disease, our nation's No. 1 killer, and raising donations for the American Heart Association. The Red Out will be held during the Girls and Boys JV and Varsity games at Liberty.

Students, players, staff, and fans of the TEAM are encouraged to wear red "Rock the Beat" t-shirts for the game.  T-shirts will be on sale during lunch the week before the game and at the game for a $10 donation.

During the game, students will be collecting donations for the American Heart Association and educating game-goers about heart disease prevention and warning signs.  You can Help NOW by donating online on this team page.  Thank you for helping us reach our goal!

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading killer of Americans, leading to one death every 39 seconds.  That's 2,200 women, men, and children per day.  Research funded by the American Heart Association has yielded major advances, such as the heart-lung machine, CPR/ AED, life-extending drugs, pacemakers, bypass surgery and surgical techniques to repair heart defects and save lives.  Currently the heart association has $4.9 million invested in research projects throughout the state of Washington.  The American Heart Association is also dedicated to heart disease and stroke prevention by teaching all Americans, from children to adults, the value of healthy lifestyles and providing them with tools to make positive lifestyle changes.
