Hi Friends!
I'm Abigail Kjelstrom, and I am passionately committed to heart health. Every heartbeat is a testament to our passions, a lifeline fueling our purpose and our capability to make a difference in the world around us. Heart health is not just about physical fitness; it's about nurturing our bodies—our companions through every step, every heartbeat, and every life moment.As the founder of Read to Rise, a Community Service Initiative dedicated to promoting childhood literacy, I am devoted to equipping future generations with one of the most powerful tools—education. By fostering literacy, we aim to empower children to build confidence, succeed academically, and adopt healthy habits that will benefit them for life. Literacy is the gateway to knowledge, enabling young minds to grow, learn, and make informed choices concerning their wellness and health.In partnership with the Miss America Organization and the American Heart Association, we seek to inspire individuals of all ages to prioritize heart health and embrace the significance of healthy lifestyle choices. Our mission combines education, heightened awareness, and community involvement to pave the way for a future where children not only access books and learning opportunities but also possess the necessary knowledge and resources to lead healthy, fulfilling lives.Your support is integral to our efforts. With your generous donations, we can expand our initiatives to reach more children, provide them with the books and educational resources they need, and advance heart health awareness. Together, we can make a life-changing impact, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to thrive intellectually and physically.Please consider contributing today. Your kindness will help mold a brighter, healthier future for our children and communities.
I am raising funds for educational scholarships and heart research with the AHA GO RED x Miss America collaboration! American Heart Association's Go Red for Women has joined forces with Miss America's Scholarship Foundation to raise both research dollars AND tuition scholarships, ensuring a healthier, smarter future for women in America.
Your support is needed, and so greatly appreciated. Join the movement to end heart disease and provide tuition scholarships to women in America. No donation is too small! 🫶🏼
With heartfelt gratitude,Abigail Kjelstrom!
