We are excited to announce the 2026 Central Kentucky Heart Ball Chair Couple, Joe & Jennifer Palumbo!

Joe Palumbo, a local entrepreneur with Palumbo Properties and Palumbo Lumber, and Jennifer Nime Palumbo, an award-winning journalist and host and producer of LEX 18's Best of the Bluegrass, will lead community-wide efforts together to help ensure every individual in Central Kentucky has the opportunity for a full, healthy life. Central Kentucky’s Heart Ball, taking place on Feb 6, 2026, engages companies, community leaders and individuals to make a lasting impact across the Four Chambers of the American Heart Association’s work: discovery, advocacy, access and knowledge.

“We are honored to serve as the 2026 Central Kentucky Heart Ball Chair Couple,” said the Palumbos. "We are eager to work with our outstanding team of volunteers and the American Heart Association to drive change by removing barriers to health, investing in groundbreaking research, delivering impactful health education and advocating for healthy policies. It takes a village to make a lasting impact, and we must do whatever it takes to create a better tomorrow for all people in Central and Eastern Kentucky."

Please join us in celebrating Leah Eggers, Co-Founder and COO of On Plane Consulting, as the new Chair of the Kentuckiana Board of Directors.

Leah brings a deeply personal passion for our mission. She has been directly affected by a congenital heart defect, and she has loved ones who have lost their lives or continue to battle heart disease. Her connection to this work drives her commitment to creating meaningful change in our community. Leah has been an active member of the Circle of Red Society since 2016, has served on the Go Red for Women Executive Leadership Team for the past two years, and has partnered with our local heart leadership and staff on team development initiatives.

“I’m excited to work alongside the Board and staff to engage our local community toward our mission to be a relentless force for a world of longer, healthier lives.”

Thank you, Leah, for your years of dedication and leadership. We cannot wait to see all that you will accomplish as Chair!
