According to the American Heart Association, cardiovascular disease in the U.S. kills approximately 1 woman every 80 seconds. The good news is that 80 percent of these cardiac events can be prevented with education, a change of lifestyle and awareness. That is why tomorrow, February 2^nd, we challenge all of you to Go Red For Women and dress in the color RED! Kim T. will be walking tomorrow snapping pictures of anyone dressed in RED.

Get involved, spread the word and we’ll see you wearing RED tomorrow!

Watch for some information to come regarding Heart month and wellness on the intranet.
