The American Heart Association was founded in 1924. It is the nation’s oldest and largest voluntary health organization “dedicated to building healthier lives, free of heart disease and stroke. To help prevent, treat and defeat these diseases — America’s No. 1 and No. 3 killers — AHA funds cutting-edge research, conducts lifesaving public and professional educational programs, and advocates protecting public health.” These diseases, the Nation’s No.1 and No.3 killers, claim more than 910,000 American lives each year. The association invested more than $543 million in fiscal year 2005-06 for research, professional and public education, and advocacy so people across America can live stronger, longer lives.

“Research funded by the American Heart Association has led to such major advances as: CPR, bypass surgery, artificial heart valves, pacemakers, clot-busting drugs, and high blood pressure medication…Millions of volunteers and supporters all across America help to fight heart disease and stroke and make it possible for all people to live longer, better lives.”
