Dallas leader Christina Reed raises $62K to fight women’s No. 1 health threat
Summary: Christina Reed won the 2026 Dallas Woman of Impact award by raising over $62,000 for the American Heart Association. She helped spread the word about heart disease, which is the number one health threat for women. In fact, over 44% of women over age 20 have some form of heart disease. Life events like pregnancy and menopause can increase this risk. Reed's mission is to remind women to stop putting their own health on the back burner and take action to live longer, healthier lives.
