Organizers for the Heart Walk Hustle couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day. With blue skies and sunshine above, the annual MUSC Heart Walk Hustle raised more than $4,300 to contribute to the American Heart Association’s (AHA) 2005 Lowcountry Heart Walk.

In addition to this total, proceeds from the Heart Walk Auction and Heart Walk itself on Sept. 24 will also go to the AHA. The Web site posts the highest bid per item on a daily basis and winners will be announced after bidding closes at noon, Sept. 23.

Winners are not required to be present to receive the item or package, as each one will be contacted and posted on the Web site.
 
For more information about available auction items or to place a bid online, go to http://www.muschealth.com/auction or call 792-5111.
