Why we participate in Jump

While research may be hard to see, its impact is impossible to ignore. Thanks to generous donations through Jump Rope for Heart, Heart & Stroke is driving groundbreaking research led by Canada’s top medical minds, like Dr. Lori West. Her research has made it possible for infants to safely receive heart transplants from donors with different blood types— saving countless lives.
