Brunch 'N Learn YMCA & Rex

The YWCA of Greater Triangle is celebrating healthy hearts this month with a Valentine’s weekend “brunch ‘n learn” in partnership with Rex Healthcare. Area residents are invited to visit the YWCA on Feb. 13, for a heart healthy brunch and workshop covering cardiovascular health and stroke prevention. Participants at this free event can learn heart healthy habits and critical stroke and heart attack prevention skills from Dr. Mary Susan Fulghum, Rex Healthcare Special Advisor of Women’s Health Programs. “This Valentine’s weekend we are helping the community learn more about cardiovascular health,” said Folami Bandele, executive director, YWCA of the Greater Triangle. “YWCA Health programs help underserved populations identify and achieve personal wellness through support, education, and access to healthcare resources they otherwise may not be able to afford.” This free event is open to the public and is sponsored by Rex Healthcare and the YWCA of the Greater Triangle. Dr. Fulghum is a longtime YWCA supporter and distinguished member of the YWCA Academy of Women. She was inducted into the honorary society 1991 in the Health & Human Services category. • Free blood pressure and glucose screenings by Brier Creek Pharmacy: noon to 1:30 p.m. NO COST: registration is required.
