In a heartbeat, you could be the difference.

9 out of 10 people who suffer cardiac arrest outside the hospital don’t survive. Most of the time, it’s because no one nearby performed CPR. But together, we can change that.

Additionally, this initiative hits close to home as my son was born with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and had to have open heart surgery for a septal myectomy at the age of 15 at Mayo Clinic. He is 33 now and doing well. The American Heart Association and the work they do has a special place in my heart.  

Extraordinary things happen when people take action. A small step. A simple skill. A lifesaving moment. Heart Walk brings communities together to create health and hope for every heartbeat. Every walker who joins, every dollar donated, means more people trained in CPR, more research and more lifesaving moments for everyone.  

Extraordinary starts with YOU. Help me reach my goal today!
