More than 1,500 participants turned out Saturday at LoanDepot Park for the Miami Heart Walk, a fundraiser for the American Heart Association. Together, they raised more than $510,000, according to the event’s organizers as reported by WSVN.

The walk set a clear community goal: making sure at least one person in every Miami household knows CPR. Organizers said that message was central to the day’s programming.

Heart disease and stroke survivors were recognized and celebrated throughout the event, which drew walkers to the Little Havana ballpark for a morning of fundraising and community spirit.

The funds will support the association’s work in heart health and stroke prevention, and the CPR push offers a practical takeaway for families: learning the basics can make a difference during a cardiac emergency.
