ABOUT THE HEART AND STROKE FOUNDATION
- Invested $38 million in life-saving heart disease and stroke research in 2013, supporting nearly 1,500 researchers across Canada.
- Placed 6,500 life-saving automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in communities across Canada to increase someone’s chance of surviving cardiac arrest.
- Funded the development of life-saving treatments that created 165,000 survivors last year.
FACT: Each year, there are more than 60,000 visits to the emergency department for stroke, many of which are preventable with a healthy lifestyle.
HEART HEALTH
Along with the fundraising, awareness and events this month, we want you to be informed!
During Heart Month we will be sharing important information about your health and wellness, how to stay heart healthy and what having a healthy heart is all about!
