I walk because I know that with every step, I am saving lives.
We're all tied to heart disease and stroke in some way. We have to change that. Will you help me? In years past, I've reaped for my father who died of cardiovascular disease and my mother who is a stroke survivor. This year, I'm walking for my great-niece, Harper, who was born with multiple congenital heart conditions. She has recently undergone an eleven hour open heart surgery to correct and repair. Her brilliant surgeon and care team took amazing care of her. The techniques and procedures were honed with the research of the American Heart Association.
Your donation will fund groundbreaking research that literally keeps hearts beating and helps people have longer, healthier lives.
This year, as we celebrate the Centennial of the American Heart Association, we will move health and well-being forward in important and critical ways. This relentless pursuit will continue until heart disease and stroke no longer exist.
Have a heart and help me reach my goal today.
