It's National Wear Red Day!
It's part of the American Heart Association's campaign to raise awareness about heart disease — the No. 1 killer of women. It also kicks off American Heart Month.
The WellCommons team is sporting red — whether it be earrings, shoes, blouses, pins or ties — and we hope you are, too.
If you are participating in Wear Red Day, take photos of yourself, your friends and/or co-workers — all dressed in red — and share them on WellCommons by joining the "Go Red For Women — American Heart Association" group page. From there, click on new post and then upload the photos.
Have fun with it!
We'd also like to hear your personal stories about heart disease. If you post a story or photo, you'll also have a chance to join the WellCommons team at the Go Red for Women Luncheon, which is 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Friday, Feb. 10, at Kansas Memorial Union Ballroom. Each ticket is worth $50. We’ll pick six winners at noon Monday, Feb. 6.
For more information about the luncheon or to buy a ticket, visit www.lawrencegored.org. The funds generated by the event support research and education efforts in Lawrence.
Here are a few pics from last year's contest:
