66th Annual Phoenix Heart Ball

For more than six decades, the Phoenix Heart Ball has brought our community together to raise critical funds and awareness for the American Heart Association — an organization that's been fighting heart disease and stroke for over 100 years. This year marks the 66th Annual Phoenix Heart Ball, happening November 22, 2025, and it's a celebration of generosity, research, and the people whose dedication keeps every heart beating stronger. Joining me today are Sue Carter and Caroline Conner, both serving as Vice Chairs for this year's Heart Ball. Sue and Caroline are deeply connected to this cause — each with personal family experiences that inspire their passion for advancing heart health — and they're here to share what makes this year's event so meaningful.
