Red rose ball a night for lovers
The Valentine’s Day celebration of the 33rd Annual St. Vincent’s HealthCare Foundation’s Red Rose Ball was a smash on the day for lovers. Patrons arrived in their very best, as couples celebrated their special day in a special way with St. Vincent’s HealthCare goals and initiatives in mind. With their latest mission titled, HeartSmart, a new heart wellness program, outreach will help to combat serious community concerns. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S. and has been the number one killer of Floridians for the last seven decades. The new program offers a multi-disciplined approach to living a “heart healthy lifestyle” providing program participants with tools for the mind, body and soul that will help reduce risk factors and prevent heart disease. The event was Co-Chaired by Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Gooden, Dr. and Mrs. Gasper Lazzara, Dr. and Mrs. Stan Longenecker alongside Honorary Chairs Mr. and Mrs. Gary Chartrand and Mr. and Mrs. Mel Gottlieb.
