I walk because I know that with every step, I am saving lives.
10 years ago, my father passed away unexpectedly, just 3 weeks before the birth of my second child. His sudden loss left void in our famiily, especially with the arrival of his new granddaughter he never got to meet.
In his memory, I am raising funds for the American Hear Associan. Their mission to fight heart disease and create awareness resonates deeply within me. Each contirbution helps fund groundbreaking research that literally keeps hearts beating and helps people have longer, healthier lives.
By donating, you honor my father's memory and hundreds of thousands of others. Help me support a future where heart disease no longer claims lives prematurely and enusre more familes have a chance a full life with their loved ones!
Have a heart and help me reach my goal today.
