Spotlight: The American Heart Association
The American Heart Association is a national voluntary health agency whose mission is to build healthier lives, free of cardiovascular disease and stroke. The association's impact goal is to reduce coronary heart disease, stroke and risk by 25 percent by 2010. The American Heart Association hopes to help reduce death rates from heart diseases, the prevalence of smoking, rates of high blood cholesterol, rates of physical inactivity, and rates of uncontrolled high blood pressure. In addition, this organization is determined to eliminate the growth of obesity and diabetes.
To achieve these goals, the American Cancer Association is composed of countless volunteers that help participate in events that promote health through things such as physical activity, eating healthy, and more. Fundraising and collecting donations are also tasks completed every day by volunteers, that all go toward research and other outlets that benefit the community and the wellness of society.
