Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for women in the United States. When it comes to heart disease, women are understudied, underdiagnosed and undertreated. In fact, women’s heart health research is 35 years behind that of men’s heart health research.

Through her extraordinary gift, Penny Anderson is making it possible for MHIF to commit to closing this gap and eliminating the disparities that exist in healthcare delivery and outcomes between men and women by creating the Penny Anderson Women’s Cardiovascular Center.
