Dear campus community,
As I am sure you know, we are hosting the 2019 American Heart Association's Metro Detroit Heart & Stroke Walk/Run for the third year in a row on our campus on May 18,2019.
Many of you participated and supported our efforts in 2017 and 2018 and I am very touched by all of the commitment and effort emanating from our campus.
I am serving as co-chair, together with my colleague, Dr. Munkara at Henry Ford Health System, as we head down the home stretch. I wanted to personally reach out to you to ask for your assistance again this year as a coach and to help expand the number of teams and team coaches across campus. To create a team, visit here.
In addition, please be sure that you are signed up for the 2019 walk/run. To sign up, click here.
If I can be of any assistance as we go forward, please just give me a call at 313-577-4442. Please also direct any additional questions that you may have to our AHA partner Alisha Mireles at alisha.mireles@heart.org.
I know that everyone is very busy and pulled in many directions. I hope you can find some time to join us for the Heart Walk on Saturday May, 18.
Please know that I deeply appreciate the kind consideration and engagement of all who have been involved to date, and I look forward to welcoming many more this year!
Thank you for all that you do for the university and our mission.
