The Annual Crystal Heart Awards

Presented by the American Heart Association

The American Heart Association and the Maine Go Red for Women Executive Leadership Team are pleased to recognize two inspiring leaders as the 2025 Crystal Heart Award recipients. These individuals have made significant contributions to the community and the health of its residents and will be honored at the Go Red for Women Luncheon on March 27, 2025.

The LIVE FIERCE Award

The Live Fierce Award recognizes those who LIVE FIERCE for themselves, their loved ones, their community – a catalyst for longer, healthier lives for everyone, everywhere.

The most recent science reports revealed that heart disease and stroke could affect at least 60% of adults in the U.S. by 2050. By encouraging and empowering our community to embrace a healthier lifestyle, we can make the necessary shift to prevent much of this.

The American Heart Association and The Standard want to recognize the meaningful impact of a LIVE FIERCE Award recipient for contributions in Reducing Your Risk. This individual is someone who embraces and inspires others to live a heart-healthy lifestyle – from monitoring their blood pressure, prioritizing physical activity and following a nutritious diet – they serve as encouragement to others to live longer, healthier-lives.

Nominations for the LIVE FIERCE Award can be submitted by friends, co-workers or relatives, and individuals can nominate themselves. Winners will be chosen by a volunteer committee.
