How We Fight Event
WomenHeart hosted the How We Fight: Empowering Women with Heart
Failure event in New York City on Wednesday, September 25th to convene
leading cardiologists, WomenHeart Champions featured in the video
campaign, and leading online female health, wellness and caregiving
influencers.
How We Fight, sponsored by Novartis, is a campaign to answer the
most-asked questions about heart failure and offer inspiration to
others. With How We Fight, WomenHeart hopes to inspire, empower and
activate women to advocate for themselves and take action to manage
their heart failure.
Since June we have released seven videos featuring Myra, Kim, Susan,
Shannon, Lori Ann, Lisa and Joy. To see all videos in the
campaign go to www.womenheart.org/howwefight. You can also check
out a compilation video that provides a sneak peek of the videos in
the campaign on Facebook.
