The Go Red for Women Luncheon is the cornerstone event for this year-round campaign. Theme around sisterhood and inspiration, it is a life-changing experience that focuses on three areas to support the fight against heart disease in women: heightening awareness of the issue, creating a passionate call-to-action and generating funds to support education and research. The start of the event will feature a special Health and Wellness Expo to raise awareness of cardiovascular disease among attendees. This expo will feature hands-on activities including health screenings, a Share Your Story area, two informative and interactive breakout sessions, a fun photo area and networking opportunities. Following the Health and Wellness Expo, attendees of the main program will receive gift bags, including giveaways from our sponsors and a gift card from Macy's, a delicious heart healthy lunch, remarks from local Stroke Survivor & National Go Red for Women Spokesperson, Tia Timpson and a presentation from special key-note speaker Samantha Heller, author of GET SMART: Samantha Heller’s Nutrition Prescription for Boosting Brain Power & Optimizing Total Body Health.
