About Us

The American Heart Association is committed to building a world of longer, healthier lives right here in Eastern North Carolina. Through local events like the Greenville Heart Walk and Greenville Heart Ball, we raise awareness and funds to fight heart disease and stroke—two of the leading causes of death in our communities.

We emphasize the importance of research, rural health, and addressing the social determinants of health, because we believe your ZIP code should never determine the quality of care you receive. Everyone deserves the opportunity to live a full, healthy life, regardless of where they live.

Our work goes beyond advocacy and awareness. We actively partner with community organizations across Eastern NC to meet real, local needs. This includes distributing CPR training kits to schools and groups, installing blood pressure monitoring stations in high-traffic areas, and supporting programs that address food insecurity, access to care, and health education.

By investing in local solutions and building strong partnerships, the American Heart Association is helping communities thrive—because healthier lives start at home. Join us in making a lasting impact in Eastern NC.
