Since 1924, the American Heart Association has helped protect people of all ages and ethnicities from the ravages of cardiovascular disease, the nation's No. 1 killer, which claims more than 927,000 Americans a year. In fiscal year 2003-04, the association invested more than $439 million for research, professional and public education, and advocacy so people across America can live stronger, longer lives.

Over 40 Trustmark associates and their families participated in the American Heart Association’s Heart Walk. They were recognized as the “Most Improved Team”.
