You’re invited to the first annual Wear Red Day Canada Gala-entine’s Day event, featuring live music, refreshments, engaging speakers and plenty of time to socialize. Learn how to protect yourself and the women in your life by understanding the unique risk factors that women face at every age and stage of life, because #HerHeartMatters.
WEAR RED DAY Wear a little or wear a lot! Across Canada, people are wearing red on February 13 to raise awareness about women’s heart health. Wearing a bit of red (or more) is encouraged but not mandatory. This event is for anyone who identifies as a woman, and anyone who loves women. Sex and gender both play a role in the health inequities facing women. Other factors, such as race, ability, sexual orientation, education, income, and more, intersect to compound the complexities of women's health overall.
