A word from Heart Walk Chair, Mike GeRue, Parkview Health
The 2020 Northeast Indiana Heart Walk is going VIRTUAL. So wherever you are on September 12th, we invite you to lace-up your shoes and walk to ensure that funds are there for future medical advancements. Then share your walking selfies and videos on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.
The Heart Walk is about a spirit of community -- sharing stories, honoring lives lost too soon, celebrating lives saved – all working toward a shared goal of raising lifesaving dollars that fund research, move health policies forward, and make our communities healthier. We see this community spirit alive now more than ever, even as many of us are staying home or working hard on the frontlines as essential workers, we are united in our goal to save lives. Those suffering from heart disease and stroke – the leading killers globally – may be at highest risk during this time. We persevere for them.
In fact, the AHA has been working hard to provide resources to healthcare professionals and the public as well as pivot our research and expertise to assist the COVID-19 efforts globally. You can learn more about our efforts and find additional COVID-19 news and resources.
