"May is National Stroke Awareness Month and the most important time of the year to help raise awareness about stroke prevention and to honor the millions who have already been affected by stroke.
We want you to get involved, so we have been busy creating new, inspirational ways for you to participate! Our exciting new offerings include an awareness campaign called the Faces of Stroke and a new online Stroke Awareness Resource Center. The goal is to allow everyone to get involved no matter who you are.
Watch your inbox in the coming days as National Stroke Association offers more awareness-raising tools than ever before. Here’s a sneak peek at what’s to come:
- Faces of Stroke Daily Online Feature: read about and see stroke champion profiles alongside important educational information during May. Of note: final Faces selections are underway and you will be notified if you have been selected for the campaign. Stay tuned!
- Be a Face of Stroke: participate in our Faces campaign by uploading your own photo and story about how stroke has impacted your life. It will be featured in our online gallery.
- Community Excellence Award Competition: enter to win our award competition that seeks to find the most unique ways of raising community awareness.
- Educate Yourself and Others: access our newly updated community education e-kit that includes easy ways to reach others with stroke information.
- Be an Advocate: join our newly launched Stroke Advocacy Network and get active in its many special May activities."
