Go Red for Women

February is American Heart Month in the United States.  During this month, the American Heart Association will focus on women and women's heart health.  From the goredforwomen.org site: "To dispel the myths and raise awareness of heart disease as the number one killer of women, the American Heart Association created Go Red For Women – a passionate, emotional, social initiative designed to empower women to take charge of their heart health."

Plan to wear red on February 4th in support of women, and visit the Go Red for Women website for more information.  If you choose to make a donation, "The American Heart Association uses all revenues from local and National Go Red For Women activities to support awareness, research, education and community programs to benefit women."
