This year, the Birmingham Heart Ball honored Dr. and Mrs. John Thomas (Kendall) Eagan, Jr. The event featured a silent auction, seated dinner, live music, and dancing.
To date, the Birmingham Heart Ball has raised more than $18 million for local research, advocacy, and community education efforts to fight cardiovascular diseases and stroke, the first and fourth leading killers of Alabamians, respectively. The Birmingham Heart Ball highlights the American Heart Association’s impact on the research and treatment of these conditions, as well as local efforts to implement the Association’s mission to be a relentless force for a world of longer, healthier lives.
