Monticello Rotary is showing heart in participating in The 45th Annual 98.3 WSUL Heart-a-thon to be held on Friday, February 17, 2023 from 6am - 5pm at the Epicenter at Resorts World Catskills in Monticello. Heart Disease is the number once cause of death in the United States. Sullivan County is ranked 61 out of 62 in NYS for poor health with Heart Disease following the national trend. This year's Heart-a-thon has shifted forcus to ensure those concerns are being addressed for our community. This year, the Heart-a-thon will be expanding the beneficiaries to focus on: Prevention, Education, and Treatment of Heart Disease in Sullivan County. This year proceeds will benefit a Treadmill for the Cardiac Rehab and some portable Cardiac Monitors, both for the Garnet Medical Center Catskills Campus; The Warrior Teens Program and an Outdoor Fitness Pad in Monticello with Sullivan 180, A Singe Bite’s Real Food School Education Program, and Building Sullivan’s Healthcare Workforce Scholarships with Suny Sullivan.To help us, help others, please consider donating today.
