According to the American Heart Association, a global force for healthier lives for all, cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in women, claiming more lives than all cancers combined. Nearly 45% of women over age 20 are living with some form of CVD. Heart disease and stroke continue to be Phoenix women’s greatest health threat.
“As chair for this year’s Go Red for Women event, I am most looking forward to fostering meaningful connections with others who share our mission,” Stuff said. “I am passionate about building strong, collaborative relationships, and I believe that our collective efforts can drive significant progress in improving women’s heart health. It is an absolute honor to serve as chair, and I am committed to leading the team with dedication, enthusiasm, and a focus on making our initiatives both impactful and fun.”

This year’s Go Red for Women movement and its local achievements will be celebrated at the 2025 Phoenix Go Red for Women Luncheon, on Thursday, May 8, 2025 at The Westin Kierland Resort & Spa.
