Keeping hearts beating gets our hearts pumping. That's why we fund lifesaving science.
Our goal is to improve the cardiovascular health of all Americans and reduce deaths from heart disease and stroke by 20% by the year 2020. We plan on achieving this goal through developing an environment that promotes ideal cardiovascular health; identifies, advises, and treats people with less than ideal cardiovascular health factors; and increases the optimal treatment of acute events to improve the qualtiy of life for heart disease and stroke patients.
To be a relentless force for a world of longer, healthier lives.
