HeartConnect Series
The HeartConnect Series is a collection of engaging, community-centered educational events designed to make heart health information accessible, relatable, and enjoyable. These events bring people together in welcoming settings where learning about cardiovascular health feels empowering rather than overwhelming.
Each HeartConnect event blends meaningful health education with interactive experiences, conversation, and creative programming. By combining education with entertainment, the series removes common barriers to understanding heart health and encourages participants to take an active role in their well-being.
Where Education, Connection, and Heart Health Meet
Past HeartConnect events have included the Heart to Heart Luncheon, CPR Academy Dinner, and the Red Dress Brunch & Fashion Show. While each gathering has its own theme and format, all HeartConnect events share a common goal: strengthening community awareness, promoting prevention, and fostering connection around heart health.
Through the HeartConnect Series, Hearts of Valor Inc. continues its commitment to education, prevention, and community engagement—creating spaces where knowledge, connection, and heart health come together.
