Beneficiary
For 2025, the LA Art Show is once again proud to support the life-saving efforts of the American Heart Association’s Life is Why™ Campaign. We are excited to strengthen this partnership after our successful collaboration last year.

For every ticket sold for the LA Art Show from September 30, 2024 to February 23, 2025, we will donate 15% of the purchase price to the American Heart Association’s Life is Why™ Campaign, with a maximum donation commitment of $45,000.

Donations through the Life is Why campaign – no matter the amount – allow the Association to implement initiatives such as:
  • Fund research that can improve the health outcomes of heart and stroke patients
  • Train more than 2.5 million high school students in CPR annually
  •  Support the work of local entrepreneurs and organizations working to improve health outcomes in under-resourced communities

About the American Heart Association
The American Heart Association is a relentless force for a world of longer, healthier lives. We are dedicated to ensuring equitable health in all communities.

Founded in 1924 by six cardiologists, our organization is grounded in the belief that scientific research leads the way to better treatment, prevention and – ultimately – a cure for these leading causes of death and disability. The AHA is proud to be the leading nonprofit funding cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease research. Bold investments have led to significant medical advancements including the first artificial heart valve, implantable pacemakers, cholesterol lowering medications and techniques for CPR.

For 100 years, the American Heart Association (AHA) has saved and improved lives, pioneered scientific discovery, and advocated for healthy public policies in communities across the country. These bold moves have helped transform our nation’s health and significantly reduce heart disease and stroke death rates. However, those gains have not been shared equitably. Black, Hispanic, Native American, Asian and LGBTQ people have suffered and died disproportionately. So have people in under-resourced communities all over the country. These longtime disparities were magnified, and even worsened, by the COVID-19 pandemic. With overall death rates actually rising in recent years, we face a global health crisis that threatens us all. But the American Heart Association stands ready. Success over a century has prepared us for this moment.

And the American Heart Association is just getting started. The Centennial Celebration is harnessing our historic success to fuel our relentless pursuit of equitable health for all into the AHA Second Century. Through collaboration with numerous organizations, and powered by millions of volunteers, we fund innovative research, advocate for the public’s health and share lifesaving resources.
