HeartMatters Foundation and Words for Wellness Joint Event - 5/25/2024

This month's event was a collaboration with Words for Wellness (website: Words for Wellness), a welcoming organization that aims to bring comfort and positivity to hospital patients through the power of words and handmade cards! The event was held in the local community library University Park Library, and volunteer hours were also provided for this event. In two hours of teamwork, HeartMatters Foundation’s members created around fifty handmade cards for hospitalized patients and delivered them to the Words for Wellness Organization for them to be delivered to those in treatment! 


Cardiovascular-Technology Interactive Event - 1/13/2024

Our first event consisted of a brief interactive lecture along with hands-on activities suitable for people of all ages to try. After the interactive session, we hosted a casual cardiovascular-related game that was both entertaining and intellectual with prizes up for grabs! Our event lasted for 1.5 hours, and we had 33 people of all ages come and join throughout our event. From the results of our sign-in and sign-out sheet, 100% of our audience indicated that they became more familiar with cardiovascular devices and terminologies after our lecture, and around 85% of our audience indicated that they would consider becoming a member of the HeartMatters Foundation!
