Teen of Impact is all about creating opportunities for good heart health in communities across the country. During this 9-week blind competition, young people who want to make a difference are empowered to take action for their own hearts and the hearts of the people who mean the world to them.
Nominees create Impact Teams, and together, they use their social networks to spread the word about heart health, raise money for life-saving research, and advocate for the well-being of all people. And here's the cool part: as they do all this, they earn points for the impact they're making in their community and beyond.
At the end of the campaign, the nominee who makes the biggest impact and raises the most funds in their local community is named the 2025 Central Virginia Teen of Impact winner. But that's not all – the nominee who earns the most points across the country is named the American Heart Association’s National Teen of Impact Winner.
