How to Promote National Wear Red Day 2007 On Friday, February 2, 2007, Americans nationwide will celebrate the fourth annual National Wear Red Day by wearing a Red Dress Pin*, the national symbol for women and heart disease awareness, and their favorite red dress, shirt, or tie to show their support for women's heart disease awareness. Readers were urged to take women's health to heart by spreading the word that heart disease is the #1 killer of American women. Here are several suggested activities to get you started. Use them to make a difference in women's lives in your community. Offer good through February 28, 2007. |  |
