#CreatefromtheheART 

#createfromtheheart is the story of how the heartbeat that provided an artistic life force for one person can become the driving force to inspire artistic creations through music, dance and film.

As a keepsake, AJ Perrelli's mother received a recording of her son’s heartbeat that was taken just hours before his life ended and his legacy as an organ donor began. It is this heartbeat that inspires the music, which inspires dance which is captured on film and creates conversation about organ donation.
