UAB Synopsis, Vol. 24, No. 29, August 1, 2005
The American Heart Association (AHA) continues to fund research on such lifesaving discoveries as pacemakers, bypass surgery, and blood pressure medication.
In 2004, UAB Health System ranked 11th in the nation in corporate giving, raising $177,000. This year, the Health System's goal is $100,000.
Join the UAB team in support of AHA's annual American Heart Walk on August 27 to raise critical funds to continue the fight against heart disease and stroke. The majority of funds raised in Birmingham stay here to fund local research and programs.
The walk will take place at The Summit off Highway 280. Registration is at 7 am, and the walk begins at 8 am. To register, call 975-8111.
