Event Description
An Affair of the Heart Luncheon and Fashion Show
is a highly anticipated Washington event, spanning over six 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, comprised of over seventy volunteer members, sponsors the An Affair of the Heart Luncheon and Fashion Show to raise funds aimed at reducing death and disability from heart disease and stroke.
Thanks to the 1,000+ guests, and the generous support of corporations and foundations, the Women’s Board has raised $4.5 million over the past 62 years to fund substantial AHA research grants from esteemed institutions in the region.
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.
In addition, this year, the Affair of the Heart Luncheon Co-Chairs have focused on the positive role women can play as guardians of their families' heart health, particularly where children are concerned. The following pages have important and practical life-saving information that can be shared with loved ones/kept for future home reference: CPR information and Focus on Quality
By sharing in the mission of the Women’s Board and the Go Red for Women campaign, together we can help save lives.
Be part of this extraordinary day, where fashion meets philanthropy!
