We Walk to Save Lives!

As the American Heart Association’s signature fund-raising event, the Heart Walk promotes physical activity and heart-healthy living in a fun family environment. This year over 1 million walkers will participate in more than 500 events, raising funds to save lives from this country’s No. 1 and No. 3 killers — heart disease and stroke.
Last year’s event was Abbott's eighteenth year recruiting Teams, and we had an AWESOME response! This year, we have Teams challenging other Teams to recruit the most walkers. This is YOUR opportunity to join in the fun!
 
Time: 7am Gates Open | 9am Opening Ceremony | 9:30am Walk Begins
Where: Target Field
 
The time commitment is minimal but the “satisfaction return” will be huge! Let us show our commitment and enthusiasm for fighting heart disease and increasing awareness by supporting this worthy and important cause.

“What do I have to do as a walker?" you ask?
• Help your team captain rally your co-workers and family to join your team!
• Sign up your kids and get them started on the path to heart health and enjoy some family fun time.
• Challenge other teams from Abbott: Which team can recruit the most walkers for their team? Which team will raise the most funds to support the AHA?
• Use the AHA Team website to motivate and communicate with other team members, receive donations and show your support of Abbott and the mission of the Heart Walk.
• Walk on Saturday, May 17, at Target Field.
 
  • Abbott will have a suite at Target Field with free breakfast prior to the opening ceremony.
  • Family and friends are welcome, register your kids too!
  • Abbott will provide free t-shirts to ALL walkers (family, friends, & kids too) who sign up early.  T-Shirts will be purple this year.
    • Child size shirt options are: XS, S, M or L.  We also have adorable onesies, size options are: 6, 12 or 24 months.
  • REGISTERING A CHILD? Please type CHILD in the “department/division name” field when registering so we can get them an Abbott kids' shirt.  You may also contact Coach Aaron and he can fill out the Child Registration for Abbott Form on your behalf. The latest day to submit this is May 15th so Coach Aaron needs it no later than May 14th. Names submitted on this form will not be added to the team on the website.
  • Bringing Guests? Please type the Abbott employee name in the “department/division name” field when registering, so we know who to give their t-shirt to.
