Sister to Sister - Everyone has a Heart Foundation

Mission statement:

The Sister to Sister – Everyone Has A Heart Foundation was founded to increase awareness about heart disease as the number one killer of women and to encourage healthy lifestyles. It is the only national organization whose focus is on screening women for heart disease. Because of the lack of awareness among women about the seriousness of heart disease and the belief that women can modify, control, or treat their risk factors for this disease, the Foundation’s mission is: 1) To provide women with opportunities to be screened for early detection and treatment of heart disease, and 2) To educate women about prevention measures, including a heart-healthy diet, regular exercise, stress management and smoking cessation to reduce heart disease risk factors.
