Event Description

Strokes can happen to anyone, at any age. In fact, globally about one in four adults over the age of twenty-five (25) will have a stroke in their lifetime. Most adults in the U.S. don’t know the B.E.F.A.S.T warning signs of stroke, and that stroke is largely preventable, treatable and beatable.”  Our power is knowledge and how we apply that knowledge starting today to defeat stroke.  Please join us in raising awareness of strokes, its symptoms and prevention.
