Simsbury Resident Is A ‘Woman of Impact' In Raising Funds For Women's Heart Health

SIMSBURY, CT — One resident and business owner is wearing her heart on her sleeve as she raises money this year to help in the battle against heart disease.

Simsbury business owner and resident Jennifer Berry has been named one of Connecticut’s “Women of Impact” by the American Heart Association, launching a national fundraising effort to support women’s heart health.

Berry is participating in the association’s Go Red for Women campaign, which raises awareness and funds to combat heart disease, the leading cause of death among women.

Her campaign runs through April 9.

During that time, Berry is organizing and promoting local fundraising events aimed at increasing awareness and generating donations for the cause.

Supporters can find a schedule of upcoming events at SuberhbanLivinSimsbury.com.

Donations can also be made directly through Berry’s campaign page on the American Heart Association’s website.

According to campaign materials, funds raised will support education, research, and community programs focused on improving women’s heart health.

Organizers say every contribution, regardless of size, helps advance that mission.

Berry’s recognition as a “Woman of Impact” places her among a select group of women across the state competing to make the greatest difference in their communities through fundraising and outreach efforts tied to the national campaign.
