Liberty, NY, January 29th, 2025 – The Sullivan Catskills’ longest-running community fundraising event is back! The 47th Annual WSUL Heart-A-Thon will take place on Friday, February 21, 2025, at Resorts World Catskills, continuing its vital mission to raise funds for cardiovascular health in our community.
Presented by the Sullivan Catskills Visitors Association, alongside Fallsburg Lumber, Seven X Motors and the Narrowsburg Union, the Heart-A-Thon will be broadcast live on 98.3 WSUL from 6 AM to 6 PM, bringing the community together for a full day of giving, awareness, and action in the fight against heart disease.
Resorts World Catskills has generously donated their conference area to host this impactful event, where attendees can contribute and participate in various health-focused initiatives. A key addition this year is the Jeff Bank Health Fair, offering the opportunity to pledge donations to the Unity Ambulette Tote Board, on-site blood donation drives and health screenings and educational activities.
