About the American Heart Association
Young Professionals

What:
The New York City young professionals are a group of New York City 20 and 30-somethings that move, talk, and take action—fast, while texting, Facebook’ing and Tweeting. We’re not recommending any of those activities while walking but, we know it happens.  #getphysical. This group is committed to making heart and stroke health and prevention a trending topic not just on Twitter but on the minds of all New Yorkers.
NYC YP 2011-1

Goal:
This where it gets serious: it’s going to take at least $100,000 to fund the vital research that guarantees behavior change for New Yorkers. And, no, all the money in the world can’t guarantee Britney Spears will sing live.
 
Events:
These will rock your socks—that’s a promise.
 
Social Events: The YP’s host approximately 3 social events annually
  • Mingle and Jingle, December
  • The Annual Heart Month Celebration, February
  • Red Ball, April
Mission Events: The YP’s also participate in a variety of Mission Events.  Dates and times TBD
  • Blood Pressure Screenings
  • CPR Training
  • Teaching Gardens
Why:
Heart disease and stroke are the country’s No.1 and No. 3 causes of death, killing nearly one million people each year.  If they were on Twitter, they’d give Kim K a run for her money. In New York City alone, cardiovascular disease kills one person every 33 seconds. #itdoesn’thavetobethatway
 
Impact:
By 2020, the American Heart Association’s goal is to improve the cardiovascular health of all Americans by 20 percent while reducing deaths from cardiovascular diseases and stroke by 20 percent. This goal is as integral to what we do as Mariah Carey is to Christmas tunes—it’s a big deal and with it, we can change what heart disease looks like nationwide.

If you have any questions about the Young Professionals or how to get involved, please feel free to contact Jaime Racanelli, 212-878-5908.
