Dr. Terri Kennedy is honored to serve as National Spokesperson for the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association. Through an alliance between Power Living Enterprises, Inc. and the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association, we are also contributing the entire force of Power Living, as a company, to inspire others to take action against cardiovascular disease. We are committed to spread the word through educational events, our newsletter, the media and participation in advocacy initiatives. 

Join us for this cause!

Help us save lives. Someone in your life will be or has been affected by heart disease and/or stroke. Both are life-and-death emergencies and can have fatal consquences, as well as be devastating to the family. 

I've lost many loved ones to cardiovascular disease. My paternal grandfather, two aunts and two uncles died of heart disease and two other uncles recently had bypass surgery. My maternal grandfather died of a stroke and my father had a series of mini-strokes. In fact, my dad was known around the world as a pioneer in Communications and Theatre, and was called "Mr. Speech" in the 1950s. However, for the last two months of his life, he could not speak. It was painful to watch and, I'm sure, for him to experience. 

Coronary heart disease is the No. 1 cause of death in the United States. Stroke is the No. 3 cause of death and a leading cause of serious disability. That's why it's so important to reduce your risk factors, know the warning signs, and know how to respond quickly and properly if warning signs occur. You can also save a life by inspiring others to be aware and take action.

The American Heart Association's impact goal is to reduce coronary heart disease, stroke and risk by 25 percent by 2010. Join us by raising awareness in your community, recruiting others to take the pledge and help conduct activities such as education workshops, screenings, cooking demonstrations and fitness assessments. Be an advocate for heart disease and stroke research and prevention.

You're the Cure! You Have The Power!

With Purpose & Power,

Terri

Be a part of the cure. Be an advocate

You don’t have to be a doctor to save lives. Just be willing to deliver a lifesaving message to public officials whenever you can. You’re the Cure when you speak up for vital research funding. Or when you advocate for public policies that advance the fight against heart disease and stroke. That’s why You’re the Cure, a nationwide network of people dedicated to finding a cure for heart disease and stroke, needs your talent and time — now!
