Heart of Madison Leadership

In 2024, the American Heart Association celebrated 100 years as a relentless force for longer, healthier lives. As we move into our second century, we recognize our work is more important now than ever before. Our centennial milestone was coupled with our 2024 Impact Goal of ensuring every person has the opportunity for a full, healthy life. Every person means working with every community and that is why our Executive Leadership is so important. The Heart of Madison Campaign is a catalyst for this work.
