Go Red For Women

Go Red For Women captures the energy, passion and intelligence of women to work collectively to wipe out heart disease — the No. 1 killer of women. Since 2004, the American Heart Association has fostered Go Red to grow from a grassroots campaign into a vibrant national movement. Using the simple moniker “Love Your Heart,” Go Red For Women aims to mobilize women, men, celebrities, healthcare providers and politicians to embrace and elevate the cause of women and heart disease.
