Patrick Schoonover passed away from sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) November 14, 2014 at the age of 14.  Patrick had 2 undetected heart defects that caused his death.  The Schoonover family created the Patrick Schoonover Heart Foundation to help identify heart defects in kids 14-24. 

The Foundation provides free Play for Patrick Heart screens for kids 14-24.  The screens include; Family Health history, Blood Pressure, Height/Weight, EKG, Echocardiogram and physician consultation to review results.  The Foundation also teaches hands only CPR and AED awareness and donates AEDs to host schools.

From August 2015 to October 2023, the Patrick Schoonover Heart Foundation conducted 31 Play for Patrick youth heart screens.  Screened 5,376 kids, found 341 with elevated blood pressure (w/repeated check), 313 with abnormal electrical or structural heart defects, taught 4,295 kids & adults CPR & AED awareness and donated 18 AEDs to area Schools. 

The Foundation is a 501-c3 and relies on volunteers to run the foundation and provide free heart screens.  Your donations are used to purchase heart related supplies, equipment, AEDs, Insurance and other expenses.

The Schoonover's have long been supporters of Garage Logic with their support of 'Positive Thursday', and we want to help support the amazing work of this charity. A donation of any amount is much appreciated!
