AEW announces partnership with American Heart Association

AEW is partnering with the American Heart Association to help raise awareness and funds during American Heart Month.

AEW issued a press release today announcing that it is collaborating with the American Heart Association on their “Life is Why” campaign and mission of ending heart disease. A co-branded “AEW Has Heart” shirt is now on sale at ShopAEW.com, with two dollars from every shirt sold directly supporting the “Life is Why” campaign.

AEW talent and staff will also wear red in support of “National Wear Red Day” on this Friday’s episode of Rampage. The goal of the day is to raise awareness about cardiovascular disease.

February is American Heart Month. The “Life is Why” campaign is the American Heart Association’s “consumer giving campaign that unites corporate supporters, consumers and volunteers in transforming communities by generating additional awareness around heart disease, which is the leading cause of death in the United States.”

“We’re thrilled to support the American Heart Association, and we look forward to collaborating with this incredible organization to help support their mission during Heart Health Month and to continue the important work year-round,” AEW chief brand officer Brandi Rhodes said.
