The American Heart Association’s annual Go Red For Women® Luncheon will be held Friday, May 13, 2016, at the American Bank Center. The luncheon empowers women to take charge of their heart health and raises funds to fight cardiovascular diseases and stroke, which claim more women’s lives than all forms of cancer combined. Did you know that 80 percent of cardiac events can be prevented with education and lifestyle changes? Join us and learn how to prevent heart disease by creating a culture of health for yourself and your loved ones.
