American Heart Association Volunteers to Educate Women About Heart Disease at Albertsons Stores Nationwide, Nov. 5; Los Angeles Albertsons Stores, Procter & Gamble to Support the AHA's Go Red For Women Campaign.


WHO/WHAT:   Volunteers and health educators from the
            American Heart Association (AHA) will fan out to
            Albertsons supermarkets throughout the nation -- including
            those in the Los Angeles area -- to distribute Go Red For
            Women pins, answer questions about the AHA and remind
            consumers that heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women
            in the United States. Albertsons store pharmacists will
            also be available to address heart-related questions from
            consumers.

            To support the AHA's Go Red For Women education campaign,
            Procter & Gamble will also donate $1 to the nonprofit
            every time consumers purchase three selected P&G products
            at Albertsons through the end of November. Both companies
            hope to generate up to $50,000 for the AHA and boost
            awareness of heart disease in women.

WHEN:       Saturday, Nov. 5, 2005

WHERE:      Los Angeles-area Albertsons stores

WHY:        The American Heart Association launched the Go Red
            For Women campaign in February 2004 to raise awareness
            that heart disease is the No. 1 killer in women in the
            U.S. Since 1924, the AHA has helped protect people of all
            ages and ethnicities from the ravages of cardiovascular
            disease and stroke, the nation's No. 1 and No. 3 killers,
            which claim more than 927,000 Americans a year.
