Meet Jason Leo, a 2026 New York City Leaders of Impact nominee.

Jason’s mother had just undergone surgery to replace a calcified heart valve. Just after the procedure, she passed away from infection.

Cardiovascular disease is not scarce in Jason’s family, and like so many families, they have witnessed the heartbreak this disease can cause.

Jason has joined the New York City Leaders of Impact campaign to raise awareness and support the fight against the world’s No. 1 killer. His mother’s legacy is one that will educate others, inspire action, advance lifesaving research, and make a critical difference.

Meet Ruben Petit, a 2026 New York City Leaders of Impact nominee.

When a close family member had a stroke and wrote the signs off as ‘just not feeling well,’ Ruben’s fiancé, an ICU nurse, recognized the signs. She pushed him to go to the ER and continued pushing until a cardiologist was brought in. He is living with two stents today because she knew the signs.

If she hadn’t recognized the signs, his story may have ended very differently. Timing and recognition save lives, and most families may not have the same experts in the room.

Ruben has joined the New York City Leaders of Impact campaign to raise funds to ensure that families facing heart disease and stroke not only recognize signs but are prepared to act on them.

Meet Barry Parasram, a 2026 New York City Leaders of Impact nominee.

Like many, Barry’s connection to the mission of the American Heart Association is incredibly personal. His mother suddenly passed away from cardiac arrest on her way to work. Despite being healthy and active, she was gone in an instant.

This loss changed Barry’s perspective on everything. He is watching his five-year-old daughter grow up without a grandmother who would have adored her. We know how to prevent cardiac arrest, and that’s why Barry has joined the New York City Leaders of Impact campaign.

With every dollar, we can place more Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs), train more bystanders to become lifesavers, and give families the second chance that Barry and his family will never have.

Some symptoms of atrial fibrillation can be easy to dismiss as just an off day, or a sign you’re getting older. That’s why an AFib diagnosis can seem to come out of nowhere. If you feel fatigued or dizzy, or like your heart is beating strangely, share your symptoms with your healthcare professional. Managing AFib is crucial, and there are treatments that can help.
