The $2,500 donation will be part of funds raised for the Philadelphia Start! Heart Walk at Citizens Bank Park on Nov. 15. Over 5,000 area walkers participate in the event, which raises funds to support research activities to fight the first and third leading causes of death — heart attack and stroke. The Start! Heart Walk in Philadelphia and others throughout the country is part of the American Heart Association's ongoing campaign to highlight the importance of exercise, such as walking, in maintaining a healthy heart.
