On Saturday, Sept. 27 families, friends, teammates, and survivors
gathered in Liberty Square in Charleston, S.C. to participate in the
Lowcountry's 2014 Heart Walk. Sponsored by the American Heart Association, this
three-mile walk is held to raise money and awareness for those who have
survived, suffered, or even lost his/her life to cardiovascular disease. (Click here for route map)
The donations go toward providing the
highest research for doctors to utilize to become one step closer to finding the
prevention for this No. 1 killer of Americans. The funds also aid in providing information for those who are unaware of the significance this
disease plays in our daily lives.
In opening ceremonies, an American Heart Association representative recognized some of the largest donors who, he stated, "help raise funds to further research in our community." Donations are still being accepted through Nov. 7, 2014 from the Charleston walk.
