Brian Rogers and Matt Puckett, senior vice presidents of Wells Fargo Bank and Insurance Services, will serve as co-chairs for the American Heart Association’s 2015 Upstate Heart Walk.
The men have set a goal to raise over $575,000 to help prevent, treat and defeat cardiovascular diseases at the event in April 2015.
“Wells Fargo has been a longtime supporter of the American Heart Association,” Rogers said in a release. “Both Matt and I have personal stories associated with heart disease in our families and are very passionate about the cause.”
The American Heart Association will feature its new “Life is Why” positioning at this year’s walk.
Executive Director Martha Gilmartin said, “Everyone has their own ‘why’ and we are excited to introduce this new campaign to the Upstate community. We know that Brian and Matt will be excellent leaders for our organization and are thrilled to have them on board.”
