Heart Walk

It's finally here! You can still register and come and participate! Here's the info via the president of IHH and a fellow angel Mom from her blog!
"Walk for Healing Hearts" will take place on Saturday, September 12, 2009 at the Riverview Park in Provo, Utah. This is the same location that it was held last year and since it worked out so well, why move it? Event starts promptly at 9:30 a.m. with same-day registration beginning at 8:00 a.m.

Early Registration is currently underway until August 26, 2009. To participate the registration fee is $10.00 per person or $50.00 per immediate family. The registration fee includes receiving a t-shirt for the event. There is no registration fee required for those to participate with a CHD(s).

The "Walk for Healing Hearts" event includes:
  • One Mile Walk along the side of those wonderful Heart Hero's.
  • Angel Ceremony to recognize those IHH Heart Hero's that have lost their battle, but remain in our hearts forever to never be forgotten! Like my daughter, Hope.
  • Wonderful Door Prizes! (Must be present to win).
  • Goody bags for the kids (while quantities last).
  • Great time socializing with others while supporting and promoting CHD Awareness!
The proceeds from this walk benefit the programs that Intermountain Healing Hearts, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization administers. Those programs include: Hospital Care Bags, CHD Awareness Display Table at Primary Children's Medical Center, located in Salt Lake City, Utah and CHD Awareness Activities during CHD Week (February 7-14), Intermountain Healing Hearts Social Activities to help bring families affected by CHD together (both Heart Hero's living and Angels) to foster a feeling of belonging, Funeral Flowers/Plant, Youth Heart Camp at Camp Wapiti, and the IHH Tree for the Festival of Tree's.

So gather your family and friends to support Intermountain Healing Hearts "Walk for Healing Hearts" by registering at www.intermountainhealinghearts.org. If you can not attend, but would like to donate to this wonderful cause, donations can be made either electronically through PayPal or checks can be mailed to: IHH, PO Box 381306 Salt Lake City, UT 84158. Donations are tax deductible applicable by the rules the IRS has established concerning 501(3)(c) organizations.

Without your support, none of these programs would be made available to help those affected by CHD's.

I look forward to seeing you there, It will be a BLAST!
