On Thursdays we suggest ways to give back in the community. For this week’s Give Back Thursday, we suggest Go Red for Women! Read on for more details!
The American Heart Association has a very long history of promoting heart health and wellness. One focus of their work, is on women’s health. Heart disease can affect anyone. But, did you know that more women die from heart disease and stroke than any other condition? With everything we hear about cancer, this can be hard to believe. But, it is true. Heart disease and stroke are more deadly for women than all forms of cancer combined! What are you doing to protect yourself and/or the women in your life that you love? Make sure they know the facts!
A great way to make sure the women you know and love are aware of the facts, are to learn them yourself. Have you heard of Go Red for Women? For this week’s Give Back Thursday suggestion, we focus on Go Red for Women! We are very excited to share the following invitation with you:

A few words about Go Red for Women
“In today’s world, women are juggling their careers, their family’s health and safety, school schedules, daily chores, and so much more. They
give and give and give – often at the expense of their own health. This is why more women die from heart disease and stroke than any other
condition – including all forms of cancer combined. Go Red for Women is changing the perception women have about cardiovascular disease.
Go Red for Women challenges women to know their risk for heart disease and stroke and to take action to live a healthier lifestyle.
Learn how you can be a local part of the American Heart Association’s nationwide movement to help women take charge of their
health and address inequities in healthcare access and quality of care. Hear from survivors, learn important tips for reducing stress,
and be motivated to live a healthier lifestyle.”
Be sure to register for this FREE event! You can also share this invitation with other women in your life. Knowledge is powerful and it is a wonderful gift to share.
