Let me tell you why I walk and why I support the American Heart and Stroke Association:
- I walk because I know how fortunate I am to have not directly experienced heart disease or stroke.
- I walk because I know how common heart disease and stroke are.
- I walk because I have family and friends that have been affected, in some cases in tragic ways.
- I walk because I have directly laid hands on other individuals suffering heart attacks, performed CPR, and both saved and lost them.
- I walk because I want us all to save lives.
We're all tied to heart disease and stroke in some way and that needs to change. Your donation will fund groundbreaking research that literally keeps hearts beating and helps people have longer, healthier lives.
This year, as we celebrate the Centennial of the American Heart Association and its 100 years of service, we will move health and well-being forward in important and critical ways. This relentless pursuit will continue until heart disease and stroke no longer exist.
Please help me reach my goal today. Thank you.
