Play now for the American Heart Association and play a part in saving lives! American Heart Association funded research has resulted in such life-saving breakthroughs as the first artificial heart and implantable pacemakers.

The American Heart Association exists to conquer our nation’s No. 1 and No. 3 killers – heart disease and stroke. It does this by discovering, adapting, and delivering scientific knowledge.

We’re working hard to have an extraordinary impact on your life right now and for the rest of your life. Our mission is to build healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke. That single purpose drives all we do. The need for our work is beyond question.

For nearly a century cardiovascular disease has been responsible for more deaths in the US than any other cause. In fact, cardiovascular disease causes about 35 percent of all deaths in the United States. Someone – a mother, husband, sister, or son - dies of cardiovascular disease in this country every 37 seconds.

Heart disease and stroke are our nation’s No. 1 and No. 3 killers. And the American Heart Association’s goal is to prevent, treat and defeat these diseases. With your support we fund cutting-edge research, conduct lifesaving public and professional educational programs, and advocate to protect public health. We are working to save lives – today and in the future.
