I officially retired from Labcorp On July 12, 2024, but one of my favorite things to do during my tenure was to do community outreach and fundraising for improving health and improving lives. I was very excited to receive a call from Team Captain Andrew Welch asking if I would come out of retirement and join his Team this year. I accepted without hesitation, not only to reconnect with some of my coworkers, but also as part of my own wellness journey and being more active so I can thoroughly enjoy my retirement. This cause speaks to me because too often folks are not aware of warning signs.
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. \u200b
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. \u200b
It's time to unite, take action, and save lives. Every dollar donated, means more people trained in lifesaving CPR, more research and more lifesaving moments for everyone. Together, we can turn bystanders into lifesavers.\u200b
I Walk to Save Lives. Help me reach my Initial goal today.\u200b Thanks so much!
