In 2009, over one million people were trained on CPR in the six state area of the SWA.  Find a class near you and help save lives.

As a volunteer-driven organization, the American Heart Association would not be able to accomplish its goals, fulfill its mission and make a difference in the health of our community without people like you.  There are many volunteer opportunities across the six state area of the SouthWest Affiliate. Your expertise, your ideas, and your enthusiasm are needed to implement the many programs and events the American Heart Association has available.  We invite you to join us in fighting America's number one and number three killers - heart disease and stroke.
