Go Red for Women®
National Wear Red Day - Feb. 2
Help us spread the word on social media!
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in women, claiming more lives than all cancers combined. Nearly 45% of women over age 20 are living with some form of CVD. Every February the nation goes red to unite millions of people for a common goal: the eradication of heart disease and stroke.
Only about half of women are aware that cardiovascular disease is their leading cause of death. Your post could save a life.
Wear red and share on social media to raise awareness. Why? Because losing even one woman to cardiovascular disease is too many. Help us educate everyone with two simple #WearRedDay posts:
January 26, 2024: remind everyone we are one week away!
Between January 26-31 share a post reminding your friends and family why we're going red and to mark their calendars! Not sure what to share? You can share our Facebook, Instagram or X save the date posts. Or, we have graphics you can download and share (ZIP).
