About us
For more than 10 years, the Women’s Heart Support Network has provided female heart disease survivors with tailored education, connections with others and community resources to help meet their needs as they learn to prevent or manage heart disease. We encourage women to take control of their heart health, starting with a women’s heart screening to help women understand their unique risk.
Established by a generous gift from the J.B. Fuqua Foundation, the programs and support provided through the Women’s Heart Support Network are made possible by the generosity of our donors. Women’s Heart operates with no private insurance support. All donations are used exclusively for providing superior care and services, and all gifts are tax-deductible.
