Moraga resident Janice Murphy, vice president of finance at Kaiser Permanente, has been named chairman of the board of directors for the American Heart Association Western States Affiliate (WSA). The Affiliate serves the states of Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Washington. "Thousands of lives are saved every year because of the organization's work on research, prevention and awareness," Murphy said. The American Heart Association commits more than $500 million to research each year to fight the No. 1 and No. 4 killers of Americans, cardiovascular disease and stroke. As Chairman of the Affiliate Board, Murphy will help steer the regional activities of the nonprofit organization. "The American Heart Association is second only to the federal government in terms of funding heart disease and stroke research; countless lives are saved every day because of this work," said Murphy. "You would be hard pressed to meet someone who has not been affected by heart disease or stroke-either directly or through a loved one."
