Go Red for Women

Wear Red for Women on February 6 with the American Heart Association and Northern Light Health

Did you know that cardiovascular disease is the number one killer of women, causing one in three deaths each year? That’s approximately one woman every minute! That is why every year, the first Friday of February is when Northern Light Health encourages everyone to Go Red for Women by wearing the color red to help raise awareness of heart disease among women. Join us! By wearing red, you can be the heart of our community and inspire others at the same time.


I’m wearing red, but what else can I do?

• Know the signs and symptoms of a heart attack.  
• Go Red for Women Fast Facts.
• Share what you know with others! Who knows, you may just save a life.

Help Northern Light Health share a vision for a healthier Maine by wearing red for women on Friday, February 6! Learn more about the effort at wearredday.org.
