Parametric Solutions Inc is a firm specializing in aircraft and industrial gas turbine engine and component design, analysis, instrumentation, assembly, and testing. Committed to the communities it serves, Parametric Solutions Inc supports a number of nonprofits, including the American Heart Association. One way it does this is by taking part in fundraising events such as the American Heart Association's Heart Walk.
Participants in the Heart Walk can raise funds as individuals or as small teams. Some who walk are passionate about heart health or stroke prevention, while others form teams to more effectively get out the word and concentrate donations. Survivors of heart and circulatory conditions make up a large portion of Heart Walk participants as well and receive a complementary baseball cap in the American Heart Association's signature red color to commemorate their efforts. Some local companies organize their employees in support of Heart Walk events, building teamwork skills and camaraderie in the process.
While these individuals and small teams form the backbone of Heart Walk events, many of the largest donations come from corporations that encourage their employees to participate in nationwide company teams. Employees also receive the health benefits of regular exercise by taking part in a Heart Walk, such as a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke.
