Promote women’s heart health awareness in style at the upcoming Red Dress, Red Wine Affair, set for Saturday, February 6, starting 6 p.m. at the Miami Gardens City Hall.
Hosted by the City of Miami Gardens and the American Heart Association in recognition of February as American Heart Month, this free special event seeks to promote heart health awareness among women through healthy bodies and serious fashion. In honor of February 6 as National Red Day, guests are invited to wear red as a sign supporting the cause, and they can show off their fashion with a purpose at a special red carpet event. Following the theme of red representing heart disease awareness, there will also be a coveted display of red accessories, including fashionable hats, shoes and handbags. Promoting heart health through a well-balanced lifestyle, there will also be a “Heart Healthy Food” demonstration, showing guests accessible meals that are both heart heathy and delicious. And, as the secret to a balanced diet and a healthy heart is moderation, there will also be tastings of specialty red wine.
American Heart Month seeks to provide support for women to increase funding, education and awareness of heart disease. Heart disease affects more than 6 million American women, and another 37 million women are at risk for developing heart disease. It is the number one killer of women and is responsible for one in three deaths in women annually.
