Sample Blurb for Electronic Newsletters
More than 12 million Americans suffer from peripheral arterial disease (P.A.D.), a debilitating condition associated with heart attack, stroke and death. Patients with P.A.D. have a diminished quality of life, functional disability, two- to six-fold increase in cardiovascular mortality, and a significantly increased risk of amputation. Yet, most Americans with P.A.D. are not aware of their diagnosis or the significance of P.A.D.
To address this serious and growing health problem, [Name of Organization] has joined the P.A.D. Coalition, an alliance of leading health organizations, professional medical societies and government agencies that have united to raise public and health professional awareness about lower extremity P.A.D. Working in partnership with the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute of the National Institutes of Health, a national public awareness campaign titled Stay in Circulation: Take Steps to Learn About P.A.D. was recently launched. Campaign materials are in the public domain and available for use by [Name of Organization] and its members. To view the new campaign materials, visit www.aboutpad.org. For regular updates, sign up to receive the P.A.D. Coalition’s monthly e-newsletter at www.padcoalition.org
