At the American Heart Association, our mission is to be a relentless force for a world with longer, healthier lives. We are the nation's oldest and largest voluntary organization dedicated to fighting cardiovascular disease and stroke, which remain the No. 1 and No. 2 killers, globally. Even when these conditions don't result in death, the cause disability and diminish quality of life. This is why we've invested more than $4.1 million dollars in scientific research to see a world free from heart disease and stroke. Through science and education we working to build a culture of health for everyone.

The Red for Women movement is aimed at showing that heart disease is not just a man's disease, as commonly thought. More women will de from heart disease than all forms of cancer combined. The campaign helps to educate and empower women with the knowledge they need to take charge of their health.

The funds raised for the American Heart Association truly make a difference in the lives of people all around the world. Groundbreaking research funded by the AHA has led to such advances as drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol, CPR, drug covered stents, and the artificial heart valve.

However, there is still much work to be done! In 2017-2018 $161 million was invested to fund 813 new research awards. Yet, 1,828 other applications totaling $351 million went unfunded. This means these scientific projects were shelved and the knowledge from them deferred. This is knowledge that could save a friend, a mother, a child. This is knowledge that could save you!
