How Pick.Click.Give. makes a difference
Funds raised through Pick.Click.Give support research and community programs that improve the lives of Alaskans. Lifesaving research advancements like the first artificial heart valve and cholesterol lowering drugs were advancements funded by the American Heart Association. Community programs like Hands-Only CPR education and training, the Kids Heart Challenge program in schools and workplace wellness programs, all reinforce healthy lifestyle choices. A lot of progress has been made but until the world is free of heart disease and stroke, more work is left to be done. We want to keep hearts beating and brains healthy. Your support will help us do just that and we thank you for your generous gift.
