YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - A local medical provider is promoting healthy habits among children.

As part of Health Heart Month, Exceptional Community Hospital of Yuma held a drawing contest with some of Dorothy Hall Elementary School students.

The goal is to inspire kids to take care of their hearts starting at young age

"Our hearts don't sleep so it's very important to take care of them 24 hours a day and taking care of them includes the four things, activity water, healthy eating and sleep," said Lisa Brazeel, Exceptional Community Hospital marketing and community liaison.
Exceptional Community Hospital will also host a Health Heart Fair on Saturday, February 21, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at its location on Araby Road next to Interstate 8.
