What kind of "non-profit" is too good for a $1-9 donation? I have 5 kids. We work very hard for every penny we have. My daughter's school is having a fundraiser for the AHA. I went to donate $5. $5 is...n't worthless and yet the site requires that I donate a min. of $10 if I'm going to donate to their cause on behalf of my daughter's school. Wtf? What kind of place, begging for donations, is going to thumb its nose at $5? A shady, greedy place who does more for it's name recognition and ceo paychecks than it does actual good, I'm thinking. My family will not participate in any "fundraising" for any "non-profit" company that thinks itself too good for $5 donations. See More

Training centers are closing. Instructors are losing their shirts. Community organizations can no longer afford to train their people. CPR education has been destroyed by an organization that is suppo...sed to be dedicated to increasing survival rates. Money became more important than improving patient outcomes. I’ve been an AHA instructor for many years. Now, I’m happy to say that I am an instructor for different national CPR education outlet that keeps prices affordable for our communities. This is about improving statistics, not lining the pockets of AHA executives standing on the backs of vulnerable lives. Their actions should be a crime. See More

High cholerstrol in normal people is a by-product of early day survival. To keep the human race going in lean times. The body needed extra cholesterol and energy available or the babies quit coming, ...When food was plentiful the body used the excess to store for the future. Bad times always followed the good and stored fat and the extra lipids were used up. Today in the USA and other rich countries the need for using stored products never arise so the digestive process just keeps adding to the over supply. To control Cholesterol , fat, blood sugar, and other lipids it is necessary to eat only the daily requirement or less. This will make the body use all the food intake for energy no matter what the food is. However the body needs healthy food to support normal functions so a balanced diet is necessary for long term good health. Eat right, exercise twice a day, grow old feeling good. See More

Unbelievable what idiots AHA administration is... their increase in card$ price will decrease folks taking the course! Their disguise of lowering book prices to "offset" is pitiful. There is NO need... for each student to have a book!! None! This day and age with technology everyone can keep current with online resources. It is irresponsible to mandate a book the eats up earth resources from the trees to everything needed to produce and ship...adding more toxic waste and carbon footprint to our dying world. Who the hell ever goes back and looks at their book???? See More

First of all, I would like to ask if your association is granting the BLS course worldwide including HK?
Secondly, if I attend the BLS course and sitting the multiple choice and practical examinations... in the same morning, is it a usual practice to urge students to complete only a portion of the multiple choice question and then go to the practical examination and then rush back to finish the multiple choice questions? The whole examination is kind of rush and messy. See More

Tobacco "control" has run it's course and the tobacco end game is now imperative!
If the American Heart Association, Harvard, the University of Arizona, the World Health Organization, Johns Hopkins, ...Florida International University, the University of Minnesota, Ohio State University, Tulane University, the University of Alberta, Michigan State University, American Medical Association, St. Jude's, American Lung Association, American Red Cross, American Cancer Society, American Association for the Advancement of Science, etc. would stop hiring smokers they would expose fewer clean air breathers to secondhand smoke and the consequent diseases and death. Inconsistent ethical standards and outright hypocrisy undermine credibility and are therefore self-defeating.
Expect passive indifference at best or willful disregard for the lives of clean air breathers at worst from the University of Arizona, even with a new President, if their ongoing malfeasance in failing to enforce their own tobacco-free campus rule is an indication of their ethical standards.
In 2014 they announced that vaping e-cigarettes (except inside personal vehicles) and smoking tobacco anywhere on University of Arizona property was banned at all times. News of the change was published by the Daily Wildcat in an article which included a heart-wrenching account by the ASUA President of permanent damage to his health inflicted on him by his own family exposing him to secondhand smoke. Those have not been reasons enough, however, for University of Arizona authorities to stop brazen intractable nicotine substance abusers from smoking everywhere on campus from the grounds of the Administration Building to McKale Center and especially the mall. At every Homecoming, tailgate party and other event on the mall since 2014 smokers can still practically blow smoke at law enforcement officers who never initiate even verbal efforts to stop them. At Homecoming 2016 on the mall in front of Flandrau Planetarium on the mall I complained to a University of Arizona bicycle police officer about a smoker he could see exposing me to secondhand smoke but he replied "We won't take enforcement action." Homecoming 2017 was just as bad. See More

I'm dying from congestive heart failure. I am too sick to work but not sick enough for disability. I need surgery but have no one to help with my child and no place to stay to recover. I have emailed... asking if you had any tips to help but I never get an answer back. When I was well and working I donated to you every year. Now I'm wondering what you actually do to help anyone with that money. See More

The AHA is what we chinese known as “shop that hangs goat’s head but sell dog’s meat”. It’s laughable that they call themselves non-profit organisation when everything they do is to make a profit from... getting people to use vegetable oil to bad mouthing coconut oil... I’m not sure how much kickbacks AHA is getting from those dying bad food corporation to promote these unhealthy things for human consumption but u are doing it too obvious. U are losing ur credibility AHA. See More

This organization uses images of children suffering from congenital heart disease to raise money, while less than 1% of the funds they raise go toward research to improve their lives and help us under...stand how to prevent these fatal defects from happening.

1 in 100 children are born with a heart defect - many require surgeries to correct, and all of them have a lifetime of at least monitoring, damaging medication, complications and morbidities.

Children and adults supporting this organization deserve to know the truth. See More

I have been teaching AHA courses since 1990 and I am very concerned about the horrible increase in Heartsaver cards. I teach many community classes and think the price will hurt how many people will ...take a class. I do mostly firstaid/CPR/AED. Most of my students are from rural areas in New Mexico. I was able to keep cost down to provide a service. Not sure what to do now See More

Losing both my mother and brother in the last 2 years of a heart attack has being devastating and beyond words. This tragedy has being a real eye opener, thus creating an urgency in the way me and my ...family eat and live. AHA has been instrumental in providing preventive and healthy information among other programs. I thank AHA for providing this life saving association. See More

I have been calling and writing to have my DECEASED mother's name removed from your mailings for almost a year. I have gotten the "some items are pre-printed" excuse 4 times now. Yet we continue to re...ceive mail in her name which is EXTREMELY hurtful. I had thought not wanting to waste resources would be important, but apparently not a concern to this organization. I will continue to throw away the mailings. Thanks for not giving a crap about our family. See More

ASHAMED OF YOU! I heartily request everybody to become aware, and suggest watching ‘What the health’ documentary that exposes them. It’s all about money, I genuinely thought all these big organization...s specifically yours, are working so hard to eliminate world problems, health problems. But nop, money is such a huge asset that you just want to benefit, it’s all politics. And the pink ribbons, ahh give me a break, you conceal the bad with good. Sure 🤢👎👎👎👎👎👎👊 See More

We all know how Liberal the management of AHA is. Now we know how greedy this so called non profit is. Price increase of over 400% for the certification card for our communities. Besides the FACT AHA... does not allow instructors to teach, but only allow them to push an on and off button, for their programs: they are now discriminating against the little people. The community CPR program! The cost of certification cards up 400%. WHY? Because of Liberal corp GREED. AHA has lost most of my clients because of substandard first aid program and average CPR program. (Now I almost exclusionary use a well known competitor). In addition, AHA is refusing to issue paper cards. SAVES the greedy Liberals at AHA tons of money but they give nothing back. Just the opposite. Now the instructors have to do all the work, & cost us more time and money. We know this Liberal, so called non-profit, pays millions and millions to their very rich 1% CEO and administrators. And the AHA spend millions and millions as a corporate lobbyists. Hypocrites, do as we say, not as we do. See More

It is a nice organization but at same time my father died of heart disease and unfortunately passed away in 2016. Im not blaming your organization for his death but at same time if he could have affor...ded a pacemaker device he may not have died. You are a greedy organization that needs to start providing free or low cost pacemakers so they can shock the heart back up. See More

Nothing but a Dept of Propaganda. Promotes junk, processed, genetically- modified fake food while vilifying healthy fats necessary for proper neurological and vascular functioning. AHA is a big reaso...n US with its SAD (Standard American Diet) has worst cardiac health statistics. See More

Don't donate to this organization. They receive millions of dollars from the very very corporations that further along heart disease with their products and then the pharmaceutical companies that make... billions treating heart disease. Then they put recipes on their website with ingredients sure to cause a heart attack and refuses to discuss prevention in any forum. Yuck. See More

Massive increases to the cost of CPR cards and supplies have made it so this critical lifesaving training is no longer affordable to the general public. This is an absolute disgrace and the AHA should... be ashamed of themselves. Please sign this petition located at change dot org to pressure the AHA to uphold the promises of their mission statement and allow instructors to offer this training at REASONABLE costs! See More
