 Heart
Strides
Heart disease is America’s
#1 killer among men and women. Pulmonary disease, just behind
cardiac conditions in seriousness, is also on the rise and
can have severe effects. Cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation
treatment is essential to improve a patient’s quality
of life and to help prevent future attacks.
High Point Regional Health System believes in helping all
patients on the road to recovery, but some patients are
unable to afford this life-extending treatment. For that
reason, the Heart Strides scholarship fund provides financial
assistance. Gifts to Heart Strides go directly to heart
and lung patients for scholarships to the rehab program.
All gifts are 100 percent tax-deductible. Any gift may be made
in honor of or in memory of someone.
Rives Trust
In 1990, Warren Rives, Jr., died unexpectedly
of a heart attack at the age of 41. He was serving on the
Hospital Board of Trustees at the time of his death, the
youngest person ever to do so. His family set up a special
trust in his memory to fund educational needs for Heart
Strides Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehab. Proceeds are used to
equip the Heart Strides program with diagnostic and monitoring
equipment, as well as nutritional and lifestyle education
materials—all to benefit patients recovering from
heart events.
Please consider joining the Rives family and others who
have contributed to this very worthy endeavor—and
help provide the best of care to those who need it most.
All gifts are 100 percent tax-deductible. Any
gift may be made in honor of or in memory of someone.
