I'm proud to be a Leaders of Impact Nominee
I'm excited to be nominated for the Leaders of Impact campaign this year. As part of this year's class of changemakers, I'm dedicated to making a lasting impact on the health of our community and hope that I can count on your support!
Despite many advances, cardiovascular disease is still the No.1 killer in the US. And while approximately 80% of cardiovascular disease could be prevented through a healthy diet, physical activity, a healthy weight, not smoking, controlled blood pressure, diabetes, and lipid levels - the disparities in access to care, nutrition, and healthy environments make achieving these goals far too difficult for far too many people. That's why I am committed to being a part of this relentless force for a world of longer, healthier lives.
Are you with me in making a real impact on the health of our community? Please click on the donate button next to my name below to support my efforts. Every dollar counts, and I'm counting on you!
Greater Pittsburgh Leaders of Impact - Fall 2026
Eva C. Wright
I’m honored to be part of this year’s American Heart Association Leaders of Impact campaign.
But I don’t want to do this alone.
I’m approaching these seven weeks as a Collaborative, bringing together people and networks from across our communities around a shared purpose: helping people live longer, healthier lives.
Yes, we’re going to raise money. Cardiovascular disease remains the No. 1 killer in the U.S., and the work of the American Heart Association matters.
But I also want us to show up.
To uplift good work already happening. To introduce people who should know one another. To share resources, attend events, invite others in, and help people discover organizations and communities they may not otherwise encounter.
There is room for everyone in this.
Give $25. Give more if you can. Share the campaign. Join the team. Make an introduction. Bring someone along. Show up.
Fundraising begins September 17 at 9:00 AM and continues through November 4 at 9:00 PM.
This may be my Leader of Impact campaign, but the impact belongs to all of us.
