Congratulations to Transamerica SVP of Public Affairs and Baltimore Heart Walk Chair Greg Tucker and Baltimore E.D. Yvette Mingo, and a team of AHA staff from multiple affiliates led by Brandi Broome, SVP of Development in MAA, for securing a new investment of $1.6 million over three years by the Transamerica Corporation. Their leadership is passionate about building healthier communities and a healthier workforce, starting in five key markets across the country including Baltimore.

Our mission is to be a relentless force for a world of longer, healthier lives. For nearly 100 years, we’ve been fighting heart disease and stroke, striving to save and improve lives. Heart disease is the No. 1 killer worldwide, and stroke ranks second globally. Even when those conditions don’t result in death, they cause disability and diminish quality of life. We want to see a world free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke.
