RED, SET, GO! HEART LUNCH

The fourth annual Red, Set, Go! Heart Luncheon, hosted by the Olympic Medical Center Foundation will be held at Sunland Golf & Country Club in Sequim on Friday, February 4, 2011.

We hope to inspire women to become educated to improve their heart health.  The Foundation initially committed to a 3 year campaign to raise the awareness of the critical issue of heart health for women on the Olympic Peninsula while fundraising for special projects at the same time.  In 2009 and 2010, we were so successful that we were able to place 22 Automated External Defibrillators (AED’s) into the community by placing them in the squad cars for the Sequim Police Department, Port Angeles Police Department and Clallam County Sheriff’s Department.  Because of this remarkable success, the Olympic Medical Center Foundation has committed to another 3 year campaign.

Many women are surprised to learn that heart disease is the #1 killer of American women and kills more women under the age of 45 than any other dingle disease.  The key to eradicating this desease is education, and women who understand the risks of heart disease and know the steps to reduce them are better equipped to avert this serious and largely preventable threat to their health.

Again this year, funds raised by our silent auction, basket raffles and Fund A Need will be used to provide AED’s to the Port Angeles and Sequim communities.
