Create Change. Leave a Legacy.
The American Heart Association’s Impact Campaigns in New York City bring together the powerful voices and networks of leaders who are working to drive change and improve lives in New York City and beyond.
Over the course of several weeks, the Leaders of Impact, Woman of Impact, and Teen of Impact campaigns empower leaders and their teams to raise awareness and funds for lifesaving research, advocacy and education. These campaigns are a celebration of purpose-driven leadership, recognizing and elevating changemakers who are committed to improving health and saving lives across New York City. The nominees who make the greatest local impact are named New York City’s Leader, Woman, or Teen of Impact, with the top nominee nationwide earning the national title.
