Heart disease and stroke runs big in my family. My mother suffered multiple strokes in 2017, 2018 and 2021. Her twin sister and her 2 brothers have all suffered a stroke which has left an impact on their their lives. My father died of a heart attack when I was 6-years-years-old. For this reason i believe in achieving heart health and support the American Heart Association's mission and will be participating in the Heart Walk on 4/23/22. Will you support my efforts and help me reach my goal?
What will your donation do? I'm glad you asked. Every donation will help create big science, like science that created the artificial heart valve. The moment you contribute to the Heart Walk, you are contributing to, witnessing, and progressing lifesaving science. Lives can't be saved without you. Will you donate today to support this mission and help me reach my goal?
