“Alpha Phi's philanthropy has been a huge part o

“Alpha Phi's philanthropy has been a huge part of my life, even before I joined Alpha Phi. When I was 13 years old, I had my first heart palpitation in a routine dance class. I had no idea what was going on inside my body. I continued to have palpitations for years as I visited doctor after doctor, trying to find a diagnosis and hopefully a cure. Finally, after 3 years of heart monitors and tests, I was diagnosed and having heart surgery at 16 years old.
.
It was easily the scariest time of my life, but with the help of organizations like Alpha Phi I can help spread my story.
For 13 years of my life I had no idea anything was wrong, which is why it is so important to raise awareness for cardiac care and heart health. After joining the Gamma Kappa chapter at CSULB, I was given the support from my sisters to keep fighting and the platform to share how widespread heart disease really is. I have been able to share stories with sisters and count on them to be there cheering me on as I advocate for this cause.
.
I aim to change the stigma of heart health to show that it can affect anyone, at any age. I was an active and fit teenager who did not even know what a palpitation was until I experienced it for myself. Alpha Phi has shown me how strong I am and how important my story is in changing the narrative around cardiac care."

Thank you @shelbylynndavis for sharing your story with us and striving to educate those you meet on the incredible importance of heart health at all ages!

Heart health is an issue that has been integral to

Heart health is an issue that has been integral to Brandi Aubrey’s (Eta Psi-Eastern Washington) life since birth. Born with a cardiac birth defect, at the age of 31, she underwent open heart surgery that required the replacement of “part of [her] heart and aorta.”
.
“If it wasn’t for funds raised by organizations like Alpha Phi Foundation, I would not be alive today. The money raised has helped to support research into techniques and treatments that help save lives like mine. This hard work and support of women’s heart health is one of the primary reasons why I became an Alpha Phi.”
.
Alpha Phi is dedicated to generating awareness of and improving cardiac outcomes for generations of women. Thanks to donors, like Brandi, we fund cutting-edge research and community projects that have a tangible impact on the way millions of women encounter cardiac challenges in their daily lives.
