Nine out of 10 people who suffer cardiac arrest outside of the hospital die. In most of those cases, bystander CPR was not performed. But we can change this. It's time to unite, act and save lives. The American Heart Association invites YOU to join the 2024 Alachua County Heart Walk to help turn a community of bystanders into a community of lifesavers. Every walker who joins, every dollar donated, means more people trained in CPR, more research and more lifesaving moments for everyone.  

The 2024 Alachua County Heart Walk will take place on September 28 at Celebration Pointe. Activities like CPR demonstrations will start at 8 a.m. and the 5K walk will begin at 9. The Alachua County Heart Walk raises funds to advance lifesaving research, increase CPR education and training and drive equitable health for all people.
