From humble beginnings, the American Heart Association has grown into the nation’s oldest and largest voluntary organization dedicated to fighting heart disease and stroke. A shared focus on cardiovascular health unites our more than 33 million volunteers and supporters as well as our more than 3,400 employees. Heart disease is the No. 1 killer worldwide, and stroke ranks second globally. Even when those conditions don’t result in death, they cause disability and diminish quality of life. We want to see a world free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke. Our size and scope let us have real impact. We have invested more than $4.5 billion in research, more than any U.S. nonprofit organization.
- We trained more than more than 92,000 Nebraska residents over the past year (19 million nationwide)
- In the past 5 years the American Heart Association has funded $4,103,157 of new and continuing research here locally.
- In the next decade, by 2030, the AHA will strive to equitably increase healthy life expectancy from 66 to at least 68 years of age in the United States.
