On Saturday, September 27, shipbuilders joined hundreds of walkers at Jones Park in Gulfport for the 2025 Gulf Coast Heart Walk — a morning filled with sunshine, smiles, and support for heart health.
As an event sponsor, Ingalls hosted the “Strokes for Strokes” activation station, where participants putted with their non-dominant hand to raise awareness of stroke symptoms and honor those affected. Local schools, cheer teams and community organizations also joined the effort, creating an atmosphere of inspiration and unity.
Together, participants helped raise more than $260,000 to fund research, education, and lifesaving programs through the American Heart Association.
