On January 23, 2023, we lost my brother Hank. He was waiting for a new heart when he passed. That fall I had open heart surgery to replace my mitral valve and was diagnosed with Advanced Heart Failure that winter. The following year I was placed on the transplant list. I have come to realize so many have their own heart stories.
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!
