Sisters,
Tomorrow, February 4th, is National Wear
RED Day.
This is "a day when Americans nationwide will take women's health to heart by wearing red to show their support fo women's heart disease awareness. National Wear Red Day supports
The Heart Truth, a national awareness campaign for women about heart disease sponsered by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute. The campaign introduced the Red Dress as the national symbol for women and heart disease awareness in February 2003. National Wear Red Day promotes the Red Dress symbol and the message that it carries: "Heart Disease Doesn't Care What You Wear-It's the #1 Killer of Women." For ideas and tolls (including the Red Dress Pin) to help you participate in National Wear Red Day, visit
