2010 Start! Greenville Heart Walk
8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
More than an event, the Start! Heart Walk is an experience. The event brings the Greenville South Carolina Heart Walk community together to raise funds to fight the nation’s No. 1 and No. 3 killers — heart disease and stroke. In addition to the 1- or 3-mile walk, the Create Hope, Inspire Change and Celebrate Success areas will:
- Pay tribute to lost loved ones;
- Honor survivors of heart disease and stroke;
- Encourage behavior changes in adults and children like increasing physical activity and making heart-healthy choices part of daily life;
- Highlight the successful fundraising efforts of individuals and companies;
- Celebrate individuals and companies who have made significant changes to lead a heart-healthy life.
Together as a community, we raised more than $450,000 for the 2009 Heart Walk and had approximately 4,000 people in attendance, fighting heart disease and stroke and exercising their hearts.
