What is the American Heart Walk?
The American Heart Walk is a fun event that
increases community awareness of walking as
a heart healthy exercise while raising funds to
continue the American Heart Association's
(AHA) fight against heart disease and stroke.
Who participates?
Participants in the American Heart Walk are
organized in teams consisting of co-workers,
friends and family members. Participating
walkers obtain pledges/donations prior to
the event. On the day of the event,
participants walk a pre-set course and take
part in the Walk festivities.
Why participate?
Heart disease affects someone you know.
Heart disease is the #1 KILLER and stroke
is the #3 KILLER in Alabama. In addition to
raising money to benefit the American Heart
Association, dollars raised stay to fund
research and programs in Alabama.
