I walk because I know that with every step, I’m making a difference in someone’s life. And when combined with a million other Heart Walk Heroes across the nation, we have an even greater impact toward curing heart disease and stroke. Will you be a Heart Walk Hero with me?
Your donation will fund groundbreaking research that literally keeps hearts beating and helps people have longer, healthier lives. I know this firsthand as my father had his first heart attack at age 36. He had to travel to Atlanta for a triple bypass. 10 years later, he had an angioplasty. One year later, he had a quadruple bypass. Twelve years later, he died of a heart attack at the age of 59. Without the help of the American Heart Association, we likely would not have gotten those 23 extra years with him.
Have a heart and help me reach my goal today! Who knows, it could possibly extend the life of your loved one.
