Sister to Sister

Sister to Sister is proud to have been a part of the Boston community since 2004 by hosting our Women's Heart Health Fairs.  In that time, more than 15,000 women have attended our events while over 5,000 women were screened for heart disease risk factors!

What resources did the Women's Heart Health Fairs offer?

• Life-saving information – dozens of women’s health exhibitors offered FREE educational materials that helped you get smart about your heart.
• Expert demonstrations – of heart-healthy cooking, fitness, nutrition, and other strategies. They were fun to watch and inspiring to try for yourself at home!
• FREE heart disease screening – it took just 15 minutes and looked at cholesterol and triglycerides, blood glucose, blood pressure, Body Mass Index (BMI), waist circumference, and family health history.
• One-on-one counseling session – to go over your screening results and formulate a personalized heart health plan.
• Access to local medical experts – who wanted to hear your questions and concerns about heart disease.
• Fun and prizes – massages, spa treatments, chocolate, raffles, and other giveaways.

Sister to Sister is currently partnering with Brigham and Women's Hospital to to provide heart-health screenings, events, classes, and more to the Boston area on a year-round basis.
