Helping the American Heart Association is personal to Stacy Lightfoot.<\/p>\n

Lightfoot, vice chancellor for Diversity and Engagement at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, was only a month into her job at UTC when her 45-year-old sister, Charla Monique Goodwin, was rushed to the hospital.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe was in heart failure and we had no idea,\u201d Lightfoot recalled of the summer 2021 episode. \u201cWe had no clue how bad her health was, but her body functions were shutting down by the time we got her to the emergency room.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is why I said \u2018yes\u2019 when I was asked to chair the Go Red fundraiser; it\u2019s personal. It\u2019s also a way to bring and build awareness to the Chattanooga community about how devastating and common heart disease is and how to prevent it.\u201d<\/p>\n

These days, Goodwin is doing well\u2014under cardiologist care, her heart is functioning close to its full capacity\u2014and Lightfoot is serving as the co-chair for the American Heart Association\u2019s Chattanooga Go Red for Women fundraiser, which takes place on May 19 at the Chattanooga Convention Center.<\/p>\n

Another high-ranking member of the UTC family, Vice Provost for Academic Outreach Shewanee Howard-Baptiste, is a member of the Chattanooga chapter\u2019s board of directors\u2014serving as AHA Leadership Development chair.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With February being American Heart Month, Lightfoot and Howard-Baptiste have been spreading the word to increase awareness of heart and cardiovascular disease and how to prevent it.<\/p>\n

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly 700,000 people die of heart disease in the U.S. every year. The CDC said that heart disease is the leading cause of death for men, women and people of most racial and ethnic groups in the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want our campus to demonstrate how we can support heart health,\u201d said Howard-Baptiste, who is bringing free, no-hands CPR training to UTC. Demonstrations will take place from noon-2 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 28, in the University Center Raccoon Mountain Room.<\/p>\n

The Master of Public Health Program at UTC is co-sponsoring this event in partnership with Academic Affairs and the Division of Diversity and Engagement.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur campus is tobacco-free. We have the Center for Wellbeing and different initiatives on campus supporting physical and mental health. Getting trained in no-hands CPR\u2014or at least seeing the demonstration\u2014can help save people\u2019s lives,” she said.<\/p>\n

Howard-Baptiste\u2019s background is in public health. As interim director of the MPH program, she had direct connections to numerous community partners, including the AHA.<\/p>\n

When she was invited to join the organization\u2019s board of directors in 2020, she jumped at the opportunity.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have encouraged them to have MPH students serve on the board as well,\u201d Howard-Baptiste said, \u201cso that our students are active in the community.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lightfoot, who is co-chairing the fundraiser with BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee Senior Vice President and Chief Communications Officer Dalya Qualls White, said it is vital to share the work of the AHA with the UTC campus \u201cbecause heart disease affects people of all ages.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the AHA website<\/strong><\/a>, \u201cSince 2004, the Go Red for Women movement has educated millions of women about their No. 1 killer: cardiovascular disease. But now we face a new challenge; research shows that younger women and women of color are not aware that this threat is real.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe American Heart Association continues to innovate ways to ensure all women are aware of their heart disease risk and empower women to take control of their well-being. Good heart health is a journey, not a destination, and Go Red for Women wants to walk hand-in-hand with women through every age and every stage as a trusted health partner. We are also working tirelessly to accelerate science, advance public health policy and engage more women in research and STEM.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lightfoot shared that next year\u2019s Go Red chair, 37-year-old Channing Muller, suffered two heart attacks at 26.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s critically important to get this information into the hands of college students,\u201d she said. \u201cWe don\u2019t want young people on campus to think that this is only an old folks\u2019 disease that affects their parents or grandparents. It is something that we can start preventing now with better awareness.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lightfoot is more than happy to talk about her sister\u2019s stress-related heart condition and recovery, especially since Goodwin will be the honoree at the May event.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the first time that the honoree has been connected to the chair of the committee, so it\u2019s even more personal to me,\u201d Lightfoot said. \u201cThe American Heart Association will be able to tell her story.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
