Speakers needed for Heart Health Presentation

[we have received the following request and are pleased to publish it here...]

The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine is looking for a few good speakers. We have received funding to speak at service organizations nationwide about the impact of nutrition on heart health. We have prepared a presentation that includes a speech and several handouts about cardiovascular health and diet.

In order to make this program a success, we are looking for presenters with a medical background, such as doctors, nurses, dietitians, and other health care professionals, who can speak about a vegan diet with confidence and motivate listeners to take action toward personal well-being.

We are offering $100 compensation for the time given toward preparation, travel, and speaking. We can help you find and schedule a date for a service club(s) in your area, including Rotary clubs or similar venues. If you know of any organizations, we certainly welcome your efforts.

If you or someone you know can help, please contact me at 202-686-2210, ext. 333, or slevin@pcrm.org. Thanks so much for your consideration.

Best regards,
