Every year, I walk in the Madison Heart Walk for my dad.

Years ago, my dad survived a heart attack. The care that saved his life was made possible by decades of American Heart Association-funded research, public health education, and evidence-based treatment guidelines that have transformed how heart disease is prevented, diagnosed, and treated. Because of that work, my family has had more time with him, and I'll always be grateful.

Working for the Heart Association, I've also had the privilege of meeting survivors and families whose stories remind me every day why this mission matters and why we must keep pushing forward.

That's why I'm asking for your support.

Every dollar raised helps fund lifesaving research, improve patient care, support CPR education, and build healthier communities so more families can have the moments and memories that matter most.

Thank you for your support!
