Women's Board An Affair of the Heart (American Heart Association)

An Affair of the Heart Luncheon and Fashion Show is a highly anticipated Washington event, spanning over seven decades.

In fact, this event is one of the oldest annual fund-raising events of any nationally recognized non-profit group. The Women’s Board joins the AHA’s Go Red for Women campaign in bringing a voice to the silent killer of heart disease to help save lives. Go Red for Women needs you to shatter the silence by choosing to speak up about heart disease. Be part of this joint movement, make healthy choices, speak up and spread the word.

Deb and Kara both joined the Women’s Board in 2018 and share a passion for raising awareness and funding research for cardiac related issues. This year both Deb and Kara are celebrating anniversaries as heart survivors. For Deb, this year marks 25 years from her stroke, and nearly 15 years from her first pacemaker. For Kara, after having open heart surgery in 2015 and a cardiac ablation in 2013 she knew she wanted to pay it forward and get involved in AHA.
