In 1979 and 1982, my dad had open heart surgery with 4 by-passes each time.  Thankfully, he was with us another 20 years until 2002.   In his memory, I am raising money for the American Heart Association.  Please help me reach my goal of $2,500.00 and/or join my team on Saturday, 9/27 for the Heart Walk. 

 

9 out of 10 people who suffer cardiac arrest outside the hospital die. In most of those cases, bystander CPR was not performed. But we can change this. ​

 

Cardiac arrests happen at work, in homes, on athletic fields and in neighborhoods everywhere, and the readiness of our community can be the difference between life and death. ​

It's time to unite, take action, and save lives. Every walker who joins, every dollar donated, means more people trained in lifesaving CPR, more research and more lifesaving moments for everyone. ​

 

I Walk to Save Lives. Together, we can turn bystanders into lifesavers.
