Go Red for Women
Go Red this June and raise money to help beat the single biggest killer of Australian women. The Heart Foundation is leading the fight against heart disease. Dress red, eat red … Anything goes as long as it’s red.
Heart disease is the single biggest killer of Australian women. Women are three times more likely to die from heart disease than from breast cancer.
The Heart Foundation saves lives and improves health through funding cardiovascular research, providing guidelines for health professionals, educating the public and assisting people with cardiovascular disease.
Cardiovascular disease remains one of Australia’s most devastating health problems. The Heart Foundation, which was established in 1959, is dedicated to reducing the impact of heart disease in Australia, which includes helping to minimise the number of people living with or dying from heart, stroke or blood vessel disease.
As a charity, the Heart Foundation relies on donations and gifts to continue their research and health education work.

I like the way they pay attention to equal rights for women.
