Find many more sample ideas and tools to help plan and implement your own Heart Truth event.

Bring The Red Dress Collection to your community!

Organizations nationwide are creating diverse celebrations of women's heart health, such as Red Dress-themed health fairs, galas, dances, celebrity teas, power breakfasts, and fashion shows to benefit and promote their own women's heart health awareness programs. On a limited basis, The Heart Truth campaign can provide a subset of the national Red Dress Collection to your city through the campaign's Single City Program. This is an excellent opportunity to enhance your existing women's heart health program, or to establish the foundation for a new initiative. For more information contact Partners@hearttruth.org.
