Everyday about 2,400 people-moms, dads, children, and friends – die from heart disease and stroke. This means in 2015, 865,000 families will lose someone to heart disease and stroke. At the American Heart Association, we believe we can change this with your help. We believe we can build healthier lives free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke. Our AHA-funded research underline all that we do from CPR training of millions, hospital guidelines which determine protocols for your loved-ones, advocating for smoke-free public places and much, much more. Countless Americans are alive today because of people like you who gave. Come and join us.
Help fund life-saving research and educational programs that are needed so that our community have a chance to fight this silent killer by raising money from family and friends.
