Simon’s Heart
Maven partnered with Simon's Heart to create a robust social media campaign to increase awareness about sudden cardiac arrest in young children.
Using Social Media to Raise Awareness and Funds
The Challenge
Founded by Darren and Phyllis Sudman after losing their infant son, Simon’s Heart’s mission is to prevent sudden cardiac arrest in young children. While the organization enjoyed a sizable social media following, Darren needed new creative insight and additional resources to manage his ever-growing online community.
