Temple Health Has Heart at the AHA’s 2025 Philadelphia Heart Walk

View All News

Over 350 Temple Health staff members, alongside friends and family, took part in the 2025 Philadelphia Heart Walk on November 1st at Citizens Bank Park. As a key partner of the American Heart Association (AHA), Temple Health is proud to support its lifesaving mission and essential work in our community.

Funds raised at this year’s event will go towards the AHA’s most critical projects. Those include collaborating with neighborhood partners on initiatives to reduce blood pressure, which decreases heart attack and stroke risk; and providing grant funding to local health systems—including Temple Health—to make research breakthroughs in the fight against heart disease and stroke. 

Initiatives also include increasing access to healthy foods by working with local farms, pantries, and prescription programs to provide under-resourced communities with fresh fruits and vegetables; and improving the bystander CPR rate to put more fast-acting lifesavers on the street. 

Thanks to Heart Walk participants—including our Temple Health teams—the AHA will be able to continue, and expand on, this vital work. Please join us in thanking everyone who joined us for the 2025 Philadelphia Heart Walk!
