Chris mixes selected television appearances with her work
on an incredible array of healthcare and lifestyle-focused
charitable causes and foundations such as Save the Children,
American AIDS Association, Make-A-Wish, The Don Shula Foundation
for Breast Cancer, National Committee to Prevent Child Abuse,
The Women's Sports Foundation and the Buoniconti Fund. These
initiatives she has become associated with because of their
focus.
The energy to pursue such an active professional and
progressive social role comes from her amazing dicipline
developed through her athletic career as one of the top
women tennis players in history. Over the last decade, Chris
Evert Charities, founded by Chris in 1989, has raised over
$9 million to combat substance abuse and help abused children.
Additionally,
Evert has hosted other health-related television specials
such as the "Woman's Health Series" and a network
special on Osteoporosis. Definitely the model of an active
working mother, Chris is also married to former Olympic
downhill skier, Andy Mill. She is ideally suited to educate
viewers about their health and well-being.
