Tickets available now for Well Hearts luncheon in Port Townsend

PORT TOWNSEND — Tickets are available now for the Jefferson Healthcare Foundation’s fourth annual Well Hearts luncheon Feb. 1.

The luncheon will be from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Northwest Maritime Center, 431 Water St.

Tickets are $50 per person and can be purchased online at www.jefferson healthcarefoundation.org/wellhearts.html.

Last year’s event sold out, and because space is limited, advance reservations are required.

“The first Friday of February is also the American Heart Association’s National Wear Red Day, which raises awareness and support for ending heart disease and stroke in women,” said Kris Becker, executive director of the foundation.

“Guests are encouraged to wear their favorite red apparel while learning about the latest developments in cardiac health and enjoying a heart-healthy lunch created by Jefferson Healthcare’s Chef Arran Stark.”

Business sponsors and guests of this annual event help to provide funds for cardiac programs, equipment, and services at Jefferson Healthcare hospital in Port Townsend.

A raffle and a request for support will follow the meal.

“We’re grateful for the ongoing generosity of our community, whose past support has empowered the purchase of vital, life-saving equipment used to care for our neighbors and friends,” Becker said.

“It means a lot to have these resources close at hand, so that people don’t have to travel so far for their care.”

The Jefferson Healthcare Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to enhance the region’s medical services through charitable contributions and community involvement.

For more information, contact Becker at 360-385-2200, Ext. 2345.
