Title 3. A Proclamation Designating February 1, 2019 as "National Wear Red Day" in Savannah. | |
Strategic Priority Good Government | |
Description Kathryn Levitt, the Chairperson of the American Heart Association's "Go Red For Heart" Fashion Show & Luncheon", will be on hand to receive a Proclamation from the Mayor. The Nation Goes Red in February On the first Friday of every February, which is designated as American Heart Month, the nation comes together, igniting a wave of red from coast to coast. From landmarks to news anchors and neighborhoods to online communities; this annual groundswell unites millions of people for a common goal: the eradication of heart disease and stroke. It’s time to change this fact. It’s time to be demanding when it comes to women’s heart health and ask others to do the same. WEAR RED for awareness. GIVE for the mothers, sisters and friends that you can’t bear to live without. Heart disease is the Number 1 killer of women. One in three. That’s the price women pay for cardiovascular disease. While nearly 80 percent of cardiac events can be prevented, cardiovascular diseases continue to be a woman’s greatest health threat, claiming the lives of 1 in 3 women. That’s a third of mothers, sisters and friends. To support this event or get tickets, visit: SavannahGoesRed.heart.org or call (912) 657-6640 | |
