Every minute, a woman loses her life to cardiovascular disease, and heart disease remains the number one killer of women in the U.S., accounting for 35 percent of deaths globally.* These sobering facts sparked National Wear Red Day, an American Heart Association initiative observed each year on the first Friday in February to raise awareness and inspire action.

Today, the women of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated are wearing red and invite you to stand with us. When women come together, awareness becomes action, and action saves lives. That’s not only the Finer way, but also the Power of S.H.E. in motion: showing up, speaking out, and supporting healthier futures for women everywhere.
You can take action by shopping at CVS Pharmacy and Big Lots during American Heart Month, where your purchases help raise funds and awareness for heart health.
