The Canadian Women’s Heart Health Alliance (CWHHA) invites you to wear RED and celebrate the 5th annual Wear Red Canada on February 13th to raise awareness about women’s heart health.
Why? Because heart disease is on the rise and is the leading cause of death for women worldwide. Globally, cardiovascular diseases affect 1 out of 3 women, yet women everywhere are under-studied, under-diagnosed, under-treated, and under-aware when it comes to their cardiovascular health.
JOIN US! Between February 13 and 28, 2023 – get active and help raise awareness about women’s heart health. Track your progress towards a cumulative distance of 5km or 10km or a time of 30 or 60 minutes of physical movement of your choice.
