. Martin proclaims Feb.
I heart month
J Governor James G. Martin issued
a proclamation today designating
? February as Heart Month in North
? Carolina and urged North Carolina's
I citizens to support the lifesaving mis
' sion of the American Heart Associa
tion.
I "I urge all our citizens to learn
? more about maintaining their health
? and to join the fight against heart dis
t ease," said Martin.
? In the proclamation, Martin indi
cated that cardiovascular diseases,
including stroke, are the number one
killers in the state. Such diseases
? took the lives of more than 24,000
North Carolinians in 1984 according
to the American Heart Association,
. North Carolina Affiliate. Over 47 per
? cent of all deaths in the state were
cardiovascular related.
"Cardiovascular diseases caused
. the deaths of nearly one million
? Americans last year and will cost our
? country more than $85 billion in 1987
; for physician and nursing services,
J hospital and nursing home services
' and cost of medications, as wel as the
lost occuaptional output as a result of
disability," said Martin.
In the 1986 campaign year, North
Carolina AHA raised over 1.8 million
dollars. This year volunteers are hop
ing to top that amount.
Individual and corporate contribu
tions help fund research, profes
sional and public education and com
munity service programs. This year,
the American Heart Association Na
tional Center and the North Carolina
Affiliate will spend more than $1 mil
lion on 54 cardiovascular research
projects in the state. Programs
funded include "Heart Treasure
Chest," a preschool education pro
ject, and "Heart at Work," an em
ployee wellness project.
Hundreds of volunteers in North
Carolina will give their time to help
with the AHA's annual educational
and fundraising drive during Feb
ruary.
The American Heart Associationis
the only non-profit, voluntary health
organization committed to reducing
early death and disability due to car
diovascular disease and stroke.

About OurHome Equity Loan
Is Having To Pay The Interest, i
Because the interest is .
all you have to pay until
a home equity loan from
NCNB reaches maturity
LineOne? Equity is a
revolving line of credit
based on the equity in a
home. And it's one of the
few consumer loans for
which interest deductions
may still be allowable
under the new tax law. But
it's different from most other
home equity loans in that it
allows you to pay as little or
as much of the principal each month as
you choose.\bu even have the option
of only paying the interest each month.
And that's a big plus, which can be
seen from the chart shown below.
