Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the United States. More than 435,000 women and 307,000 men die each year from heart disease. That is why millions of Americans will wear red on February 1st  - National Wear Red Day.   They will take action and commit to fighting this deadly disease. Bee-Fit is encouraging all City employees to wear red on Friday, February 1st and take charge of their heart health.
