May 14 (Day 75) STOP Stroke / Spread HOPE

Stroke is the third leading cause of death in America and a leading cause of adult disability.

Up to 80% of strokes are preventable; you can prevent a stroke!

May is National Stroke Awareness Month — are you ready to start spreading awareness?  

 

 

The National Stroke Association strives to provide everyone with the tools and inspiration to raise public awareness about stroke by hosting awareness events and activities. It doesn't matter if you are an individual or a large corporation, because the more people we reach, the better.

 

We urge you to tell others about how to:

• STOP stroke through risk factor management.
• Act F.A.S.T. to increase recognition of and response to stroke symptoms.
• Spread HOPE about recovery from stroke.

Every day the National Stroke Association makes a difference in the lives of people touched by stroke by offering programs in local communities. And your gift goes a long way in helping National Stroke Association achieve its mission to reduce the incidence and impact of stroke both locally and nationally. By making a donation today, you could be helping a family member or friend tomorrow.


  National Stroke Association’s Personal Fundraising enables our supporters and friends to quickly and easily raise awareness and funds; set up a personalized webpage and tell your personal story about why you are raising funds and spreading awareness about stroke.
