PURMEREND – InnerWheel has supported the Heart for Women Foundation for the past two and a half years and has far exceeded the goal of saving € 100,000. This money is used for multidisciplinary research into the female heart and also for specific research in which the mammogram analysis to detect breast cancer could also be used to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in women.

Call to participate and contribute to the Heart for Women foundation
At the end of this year, the National Service Project for the benefit of Heart for Women will stop, but not before a number of activities are organized to raise money for this important cause.
InnerWheel Purmerend is therefore organizing a high tea on this Dress Red Day, Friday afternoon, September 29, to celebrate international World Heart Day. By wearing red clothing once a year during all activities and giving the whole thing a red touch, this day contributes to raising awareness of the importance of paying attention to cardiovascular disease in women. Unfortunately, this is still the number 1 cause of death among women, above (breast) cancer or traffic accidents.
Heart complaints are often overlooked
Heart complaints are still too often overlooked in women. A heart attack has fewer obvious symptoms in women than in men, which makes it more difficult to recognize the heart attack. The treatment of women is also still inadequate because all medical research and follow-up has only been carried out on men.
September 29 from 1:30 PM
All this needs to be changed and that is what Innerwheel is asking for on Dress Red Day. That’s why we’re calling on everyone who would like to participate in the Dress Red Day High tea at Spijkerman Eten & Drinken on Friday, September 29. The doors will be open from 1:30 PM and in addition to enjoying the High Tea, you can also make a contribution to the Heart for Women foundation.
