And I don’t mean Nebraska! The Go Red movement is a public-health message from the American Heart Association and it is celebrating 10 years!
I love the Go Red luncheons that are held every November in both Cedar Rapids and Iowa City. Inspiring stories, silent auctions and engaging speakers make for an all-around wonderful event. Over the past 10 years, 25 million women have united around the cause and raised more than $300 million dollars. Macy’s and Merck are both national sponsors. Also, National Go Red Day is the first Friday in February every year. Like anything, education is great but what really matters is when you take action on what you learn. Do I know that I should exercise more, eat less and get healthier – yes! But yet, do I always do so? No! However, I am thankful that I listen, absorb and try to do better each and every year, for me! What are you passionate about? What causes do you support? Find something and GO for it! You will be glad you did.
