As a community leader, Charlotte Mecklenburg Library created connections that helped Village HeartBEAT invest in faith-based organizations to reduce risk-factors associated with cardiovascular disease affecting at-risk populations. Through this initiative, Mecklenburg County was one of two grand prizewinners awarded $500,000 to continue developing successful strategies addressing access to healthy foods, increasing active lifestyles, and creating outdoor spaces. Village HeartBEAT impacted more than 20,000 people and successfully reduced the rates of smoking and obesity over a two year period.
The grand prize was awarded on Feb 12 at the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Government Center.
