Wear Red for Heart Disease and the Cayman Heart Fund. A heart inspired dress down day for charity

February is Heart Month a month-long initiative to help raise awareness about cardiovascular disease and its effects. Wear Red in your school, workplace and neighborhood and please raise funds for the Cayman Heart Fund. Get into the team spirit and pick up your own “Wear Red for Heart Month” T-shirts which are available at the Cayman Heart Fund, Balance Cayman and Audi Camana Bay.

Heart Month is a fantastic way to remind everyone to focus on their hearts and encourage them to get their families, friends and communities involved. The most important thing you can do is to speak to your physician about your risks and know your numbers by checking for blood pressure, cholesterol, sugar levels, weight, and BMI.

For the past 13 years the Cayman Heart Fund has worked diligently in the community raising funds to increase awareness about the risks for heart disease and stroke.

This Heart Month Team Nolan will be hosting the Heart Warriors & Angels Beach Walk Sunday, February 9th 2020 at the Seven Mile Beach from 7am. CHF will be hosting our Heart Hero’s Brunch on Sunday, February 16th 2020 at the Ristorante Pappagallo from 11:30am – 3pm.

To qualify, participants are asked to visit email [email protected] and donate to the Cayman Heart Fund (CHF) an amount of $20.00 or more. Everyone that donates will receive an CHF T-shirt. Take a picture and send us wearing Red.

Coordinator for the CHF, Angelique Bodden, is grateful to the community for their support and encourages residents to contact the CHF to share wear red photos and inspiring stories on how they are honouring heart month.

The CHF is dedicated to educating the public, influencing policy and supporting access to high quality health care through various programs and initiatives.
