“February 6, 2026, National Wear Red Day, is the icon day of American Heart Month.
On the first Friday in February, join us as we wear RED and help raise awareness of women’s No. 1 killer – cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease is the No. 1 killer of women – but together,
we can change the future of women’s heart health.
On National Wear Red Day®, we wear RED because every heart tells a story,
and women at every age, stage, and season of life deserve to be
celebrated and supported as we take on our greatest health threat.
This American Heart Month, Go Red for Women is reminding everyone that they are often the first responder in a cardiac emergency. Women are less likely to receive CPR from a bystander.
Anyone can be the difference before professional help arrives and this starts with knowing CPR. CPR is a civic duty. You don’t need medical training to learn CPR; you need knowledge, courage, and the willingness to act.
Heroism is not limited to uniforms, it’s everyday people stepping up for others.
