Mary Frances Fannon has been named Campaign Chairman of the American Heart Association’s 1983 fund raising campaign in Rappahannock County.
As Campaign Chairman, Mrs. Fannon will coordinate volunteers who will seek contributions and distribute information on how the American Heart Association spent its money in support of research, education and community service programs. She reports that this year’s local campaign goal is $5,000.
The American Heart Association is a major health organization of more than two million volunteers dedicated solely to the reduction of early death and disability from heart disease, stroke and related disorders. Despite a continuing reduction in the death rate from heart disease and stroke, more than 40 million Americans are afflicted with these diseases, “and nearly one million Americans die each year as a result of these diseases—more than all other causes of death combined,” Mrs. Fannon said.
