JACKSON, Tenn. — Friends of Heart, a local nonprofit aiming to improve heart health in West Tennessee, will be hosting a series of upcoming events.
On Thursday, May 4, the organization will hold a private fundraising event with former University of Tennessee football coach Phillip Fulmer, who will mingle with guests and deliver a presentation.
From 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, May 6, Friends of Heart will host its first-ever pickleball tournament. The tournament will take place at the Westwood Recreation Center with 40 players facing off.
Finally, on Thursday, May 11, Boots & Bling will return to Jackson, now serving as a fundraiser for Friends of Heart. Described as the ultimate “Girls’ Night Out,” the event will take place beginning at 6 p.m. at Hub City Brewing, featuring dancing, a mechanical bull, and education on preventing heart disease.
“We are hitting a total range of people throughout different facets of life and good diversity. I really like that because we all are affected by heart disease. We all know someone who has,” said Caitlin Clark, Executive Director for Friends of Heart.
