This year, I will be participating in my very first Heart Walk. This cause has taken on a deeply personal meaning for me. Back in May, I unexpectedly lost a loved one due to a heart attack, she was only 32 years old. Experiencing a loss so close to home has been incredibly eye-opening, especially since I have other family members who also are dealing with heart conditions. I am dedicating this walk to her memory and walking to support the health of those who continue to manage these challenges every day.
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.
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!
