American Heart Association

The American Heart Association is a national non-profit organization, headquartered in Dallas, TX. We have local offices that conduct fundraising activities such as the Children's Heart Challenge, Hoops for Heart, the Heart Walk and Heart Galas. We educate the public on risk factors for heart disease and stroke, as well as share our guidelines for heart healthy activity. We also work with local elected officials to pass life-saving legislation and health care initiatives.
