Driven to Dine 2014   
driven to dine  
April was a great month here at Florida Heart Research Institute.   Our 8th annual Driven to Dine event was a huge success and fun was had by all of the guests and friends who attended, starting at the cocktail reception graciously hosted by Beth Ann and Tony Morgenthau in their lovely Gables Estates home. We are thankful to everyone who participated in the event, enabling Florida Heart Research Institute to continue its mission to stop heart disease through research, education, and prevention. We look forward to continue developing this amazing fundraiser into one of the most anticipated events of the year.  Click here to view slideshow & read more about the event.

What's New:
 

OFFICES - There are some amazing changes happening here at FHRI.  We have begun construction of our new offices located on the same floor as our current space. The new facilities will continue to offer free cardiovascular risk factor screenings providing immediate feedback on results. The new space is scheduled for completion in early June.  Learn more about our screenings. 

 

WEBSITE - We have redesigned our website and made it mobile and tablet friendly. We have added additional information about FHRI and will continue weekly updates on research studies, health tips, press releases and upcoming events. We also have begun a more strategic social media campaign and opened a Crowdfunding page at Crowdrise.com/floridaheart, that will allow us to build fundraising teams.  Visit www.floridaheart.org

 

DEVELOPMENT & GROWTH - As part of our marketing initiative into other counties throughout the State, we are developing many exciting fundraising events for the entire family as well as expansion of our health screenings and education and prevention classes for the third and fourth quarters of 2014. Our goal for the remainder of the year is to cultivate new partnerships that will assist in our continued growth and serve residents of the State of Florida that are in need of our services.  Research, Education and Prevention are at the core of our mission, and now more than ever we need the community's support to allow us to continue our work.
