Be sure to save the date for our 2026 Central and Eastern Kentucky Heart Ball taking place on Friday, February 6, 2026.

Kenny Brooks, head coach of the University of Kentucky Women's Basketball women’s basketball team, is one of the 19 coaches in the inaugural Hearts on the Court Collective, a part of the American Heart Association's Go Red for Women movement. Coach Brooks is committed to raising awareness of cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death for women, while empowering student athletes and fans to take charge of their own cardiovascular health.

We have been reflecting back on how amazing our 2025 Central Kentucky Go Red for Women Luncheon was! To see our friends, neighbors, sisters, mothers, and colleagues come together and support women's health - it is so inspiring! We know health is personal, but the power of community helps create better health outcomes for all women!

We couldn't do any of this without our amazing sponsors. Let's thank them again for their time and support!
