Start! Making a Difference!

Supporting the fight against heart disease and stroke is a rewarding experience and is really very simple.

• Sign up with your company team or build your own team of family and friends.
• Follow the steps to create a personalized webpage showing your goal and your reasons for supporting the American Heart Association.
• Send e-mails to your contacts asking them to make a secure online donation toward your campaign. Donors can expand their gift if they work for a matching gift company.
• Attend the Start! Heart Walk and celebrate your achievement.




Since 1924 the American Heart Association has helped protect people of all ages and ethnicities from the ravages of heart disease and stroke. These diseases, the Nation's No.1 and No.3 killers, claim more than 910,000 American lives a year. The association invested more than $543 million in fiscal year 2005-06 for research, professional and public education, and advocacy so people across America can live stronger, longer lives.

Thanks to all our walkers, donors and volunteers who have accepted the challenge to help fight heart disease and stroke. We cannot achieve our mission without each one of you!
