February 3: WEAR RED!: In honor of heart disease, everyone is encouraged to wear RED on February 3, National Heart Day. The American Heart Association says that heart disease kills more women that all cancers combined! It is America’s number 1 killer and takes the lives of 2,200 Americans every single day. Phoenix Heart Walk has raised over $300k and has a goal of $900k by February 25, 2012. Supporters can wear RED, get more information, and make a donation to help reduce the lives stolen by this horrible disease by visiting Phoenix Heart Walk.
So wear your RED to downtown Glendale and eat some delicious chocolate while supporting a great cause. Enjoy your Phoenix this weekend.
