Wednesday is World Cancer Day. Millions of lives are lost to cancer every year — and many more are forever changed.

Did you know women are more likely than men to have a stroke? And yet, too many women are still being underdiagnosed and under-treated when it comes to their heart and brain health.

Cardiovascular disease is the No. 1 killer of women, but the gaps in care go far beyond diagnosis. From receiving bystander CPR to facing differences in care, women deserve better. We're committed to closing gaps in access to care and championing community support.

In just 4 days, we're celebrating Wear Red and Give Day — a day dedicated to spreading awareness and support for women's cardiovascular health. Will you join us and wear red?

Until Feb 6th, a generous donor is offering a 6X match for all gifts, turning your support into six times the power to help close the gap and protect the women we love.
