Organizations to Participate in National Wear Red Day
One day a year, what you wear is a matter of life and death. On National Wear Red Day, Feb. 2, millions of Americans will wear red to show their commitment to the fight against heart disease in women.
Coronary heart disease is the number one killer of women 25 and older. The Student Recreation Center, The Serve Center, HES and the residence halls are coordinating events on campus to emphasize awareness, raise money for this cause, and work with the Kirksville community.
There will be information booths and prizes at the SERVE Center (located in the Student Union Building by Mainstreet Market) from 9:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m., the Student Recreation Center from 2-6 p.m., and the top floor of McClain Hall from 2-6 p.m. where people can also get a free blood pressure screening. People can also check out http://goredforwomen.org for more information about Wear Red Day.
