Minot Forest Elementary students raised more than $8,000 for the American Heart Association during the school's annual Jump Rope for Heart fundraiser.
Students raised donations for weeks, and on Saturday, March 5, they took to the Minot Forest gyms and jump roped for the cause.
The school has raised more than $10,000 for the American Heart Association each year for the past five years. Donations are expected to continue to roll in during the coming days.
