Arkansas Heart Foundation offers a variety of programs from prevention to survivorship--heart screenings, patient education, a conference for providers, and a support group for heart disease survivors. They offer their programs throughout Arkansas, rather than just in our larger cities, which I appreciate. The staff is tremendously kind and knowledgeable. I appreciate Arkansas Heart Foundation's work in creating a healthier Arkansas.
Coordinating patient care with the Arkansas Heart Foundation has been nothing but exceptional. Over the last 5 years I have sent many patients to the Diabetes Bootcamp and have received excellent feedback. I have also attended the Bootcamp on several occasions and am always impressed with the knowledge and presentation of information provided.
The Arkansas Heart Foundation is a superb organization. From hosting our local Mended Hearts Chapter (national peer support non-profit) to all the free education classes, this wonderful organization truly cares about the heart health of all of Arkansans.
Please consider your support - either financial or as a volunteer. My own heart and my immediate family's are thankful for the Arkansas Heart Foundation!

Thank you to the Arkansas Heart Foundation and all of your support for Mended Hearts of Little Rock! As a patient, volunteer, and donor, I have experienced all facets of this wonderful non-profit. The staff of the Arkansas Heart Foundation goes above and beyond to support not only me, but our Mended Hearts members, and the entire State by offering heart screenings and heart-health educational events. Your support is invaluable.

Thank you! We love not only hosting Mended Hearts each month but the friendships that have grown out of it! Such an awesome support group for anyone that has had a cardiovascular event and their families/caregivers.
Ink Custom Tees has partnered with the AR Heart Foundation for a few years now and could not have asked for a easier partner to work with. Everyone we work with is very organized and cares about what they do. We look forward to many years of partnership with AR Heart Foundation.
The Arkansas Heart Foundation sponsors the Little Rock Mended Heart support group. They have provided a meeting space for our monthly meetings and help with marketing our chapter. With their support our chapter can concentrate on helping patients with heart events and have a support network that helps benefit heart patients.
Partnering with the Arkansas Heart Foundation has been very rewarding in both the professional and community sector. It has been a pleasure and an honor to work with such caring and wonderful people. The staff is very accommodating to help meet the needs of the public. I would highly recommend Arkansas Heart Foundation to any organization that is seeking a relationship with a nonprofit that is willing to meet people where they are.

Here at DIS (Department of Information Systems) , we have been doing the Cholesterol screenings with the Arkansas Heart Foundation for almost 10 years. And they all do a great job in getting fast results and then they go over all the information you need to understand what you need to know and do to improve your quality of life. The Staff of the Arkansas Heart Foundation go well above and beyond.
Thanks So much.....
The Arkansas Heart Foundation does a great job with cholesterol screenings. They get your results to you in 10 minutes and go over the numbers with you so you understand what your numbers need to be and how to get them there.
The Arkansas Heart Foundation is extremely involved with the community, and more importantly the underserved communities of Arkansas. Their willingness to travel to communities and people groups, that may otherwise have no access to the health and educational information the Arkansas Heart Foundation so expertly provides, is a great benefit.
From their health assessments and advocating everyone not only knowing what their numbers are but also what their numbers mean. The education that the Heart Foundation provides is easy to understand, easy to remember, and gives tangible lifestyle recommendations that I feel leads to success. To their diabetes workshop that is life changing for diabetics and caregivers alike. The educator goes up and beyond explaining and interacting with those attending the class.
In everything that the Arkansas Heart Foundation does there is one common thread. That commonality is that they care for the communities in Arkansas and they connect with the people they meet on such a level that they are remembered long after their event, screening or workshop leaves town.
The Arkansas Heart Foundation is a great community involved, non-profit group that has just recently established itself within the last year or so. I work in the same office building as the ladies that are involved with this program, all of whom are very passionate about the community outreach and screenings that they hold throughout the state educating many Arkansans about heart disease. This passion needs to be witnessed more often and by many others as it is very important to be aware of our risks and how to prevent cardiovascular disease. I gladly support their efforts in educating our neighbors throughout the state and know that what they do will continue to positively effect the health of Arkansans!
This organization focuses its efforts to the treatment and prevention of heart disease in Arkansas.
The staff dedicated to this focus are highly professional and dedicated.
The Arkansas Heart Foundation has been an excellent resource/partner with the Arkansas Foundation for Medical Care (AFMC) in the past year. The Diabetes Boot Camps scheduled throughout the state have touched the lives of many people and has allowed AFMC to further educate individuals in a six (6) week free DSME workshop. Thank you Arkansas Heart Foundation for serving people with diabetes and providing the resources needed to improve diabetes care and self-management.
I have been honored to work with the Heart Hospital for 10 years or more. They have provided screenings for our employees (cholesterol, blood sugar, blood pressure), as well as presenting at our employee Lunch and Learns about a variety of heart health topics. I know I can always count on the Heart Hospital to provide a wealth of information for our employees. Your staff is amazing.
Thank you to the Heart Hospital for your involvement in our community and your giving back attitude.
Arkansas Heart Foundation is a great group to work with. They came out to one of our Employee Health Fairs and provided health screenings such as blood pressure and blood sugar test. I believe they may have done a BMI test too. They provide you with your results and advise you on making healthier lifestyle changes and to follow up with your primary doctor. All they want is to make sure you are keeping yourself and your heart healthy!

ARHeartFoundation 10/05/2016 Thank you so much for the kind words. Being a relatively new nonprofit we are working really hard at getting the word out regarding who we are and what we do. We feel we are Arkansas' own nonprofit and try to represent that through our day to day commitments and attitudes.
