WASHINGTON, DC-- The Sudden Cardiac Arrest Foundation was featured in Cardiovascular Health, a supplement in today's Washington Post, as one of three nonprofit organizations making a difference in the prevention of death and disability from heart disease. Others recognized were the American Heart Association and WomenHeart.
"More people die each year from sudden cardiac arrest than from AIDS, Alzheimers, assault with firearms, breast, colon and prostate cancer, fires, motor vehicle accidents and suicides combined," Mary Newman, President, was quoted as saying.
"We are thrilled that the article 'Organizations Leading the Charge" will help raise awareness about sudden cardiac arrest and the importance of prevention and immediate bystander action," said Bobby Khan, MD, PhD, Chairman, Board of Directors.
