The American Heart Association will host its annual Heart Walk from Nov. 6-8.
The event includes the opportunity to participate in AHA’s Executives with Heart campaign, a program that gives executives the opportunity to help support the association while networking and investing in a cause they believe in. This program has multiple fundraising goals that executives can aim for by participating in various tasks.
To accept this year’s Executives with Heart challenge, executives must recruit five other executives in the Washington, D.C., area using pre-written emails. To reach the minimum $5,000 goal, AHA suggests making personal donations, reaching out to professional contacts, participating in business partner campaigns and using company matching gifts if possible.
Benefits of joining the campaign include recognition in the Washington, D.C., area at all Heart Challenge events, having the option to attend networking events with local executives and the opportunity to raise money for people suffering from heart disease.
