Fee: $35 per person
Remember to wear RED!
Location:
The Waterfront Convention Center
2021 State Street
Bettendorf, IA 52722
The Go Red For Women® event will be celebrating its 6th year in the Quad Cities. From educating the public on and stroke to special p...rograms on women and heart disease, the health initiatives of the American Heart Association are making the metro area a more heart-healthy place to live.
Join us as we educate over 400 Quad-City women about their risk factors and empower them to take charge of their own health. Participants will laugh, they'll cry and most importantly, they'll learn.
The money raised by this event will go towards women's cardiovascular research and education. Heart disease is the number 1 killer of Americans, and through events such as the Go Red for Women luncheon we hope to change this statistic.
