Redwood City Police Department leads the City in raising funds for the American Heart Association

Heart Walk 2011
Did you know?
  • Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women.
  • Coronary heart disease is the most common type of heart disease.
  • Every year about 785,000 Americans have a first heart attack. Another 470,000 who have already had one or more heart attacks have another attack.
  • In 2010, heart disease will cost the United States $316.4 billion.  This total includes the cost of health care services, medications, and lost productivity.
The Redwood City Police Department would like to commend our Records Division Supervisor, Bunny Blevins, for her tireless efforts to raise money for such a worthy cause. 

Bunny and her team helped raise a total of $2,700 in donations through a variety of fund-raising activities within the PD.  The Police Department once again led the City of Redwood City as the number one fundraiser.

Thank you for setting such a good example and contributing to such an important cause.
