Miss Jamaica World 2022, Shanique Singh was the Heart Foundation of Jamaica’s (HFJ) Ambassador for Heart Month (2023) which is recognized in February of each year. Singh's endorsement is in keeping with her mission to raise awareness and empower Jamaicans towards healthier and longer lives.
Singh addressed the audience at the launch of Heart Month 2023 on Tuesday, January 31 at the Terra Nova All Suite Hotel in St Andrew. She noted Heart Month is a great opportunity for people to come together and raise awareness on the importance of regular heart health checks and preventative care.
"Checking your heart does not only mean getting your regular tests and screenings done. It also means to check yourself, reflect on the choices that you make that affect your health such as your diet, your level of physical activity and how much you’re drinking or smoking. Preventative measures are always way better and way cheaper than treating and curing,” she said.
