American Heart Association: Get Healthy For Good™ at a Heart Walk Near You

The American Heart Association’s Healthy For Good™ (www.heart.org/HEARTORG) movement is rallying millions across the country to live life healthier, inspiring lasting change and unifying people around the simple idea that making a small change today can create a difference for generations to come.

Now is the time to fight for lasting change. It’s time to put our health first and create a movement that truly lasts. It’s time that we commit to being Healthy For Good™.

How can you get started? Join the American Heart Association for their signature event, The Healthy For Good™ Heart Walk. Heart Walks across the country educate participants of the risk factors of cardiovascular diseases and stroke, and what can be done to prevent it. Funds raised support local medical research and educational programs of the American Heart Association and American Stroke Association. Survivors of heart disease, stroke and related surgeries are honored the morning of the walk.
