Now Is The Time to Get Ready for National Wear Red Day®

NOW is the time to start planning for National Wear Red Day^® -- the first Friday every February -- when Americans nationwide wear red to show their support for women's heart disease awareness.

The Heart Truth^®  --  a national awareness campaign for women about heart disease  --  created and introduced the Red Dress as the national symbol for women and heart disease awareness in 2002 to deliver an urgent wakeup call to American women.

The Red Dress^® reminds women of the need to protect their heart health, and inspires them to take action.

National Wear Red Day^® promotes the symbol and provides an opportunity for everyone to unite in this life-saving awareness movement by showing off a favorite red dress, shirt, or tie, or  Red Dress Pin.
