The Gee Wiz Heart Walk Team will auction off quilts to raise money for the American Heart Association. All proceeds go to the UAF Geophysical Institute's team to reach its goal of raising $10,000 for the American Heart and Stroke Association. Help spread the word and pass this information along to your teammates.

Nettie La Belle-Hamer, director of the GI's Alaska Satellite Facility, made the beautiful wall-hanging quilts using past Heart Walk shirts. The quilts are displayed in the Geophysical Institute director's office in Elvey Building Room 601. The silent auction is April 14–22.
