I walk because I know that with every step, I am saving lives.
We're all tied to heart disease and stroke in some way. We have to change that. As a cardiovascular intensive care unit nurse, I unfortunately see the impact of this every shift, every day.
Your donation will fund groundbreaking research that literally keeps hearts beating and helps people have longer, healthier lives. I get to see first hand just how life changing this research and new technology is when caring for my patients. Without the generosity of our donors, there would be substantially less "good" outcomes and there would not be as many survivors to celebrate today.
This year, as we celebrate the Centennial of the American Heart Association, 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.
100 years of innovative science so far and hundreds more to go with your help! Please help me to hit my fundraising goal and fight against heart disease and stroke!
