How they approach the work
Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.
- Comprehensive Heart Health Support Modelmethodology: education-support-technologyBy combining education, emotional support, and access to life-saving technology, the foundation improves heart health outcomes, because holistic support addresses both clinical and psychosocial dimensions of living with heart disease.
- Integrated AED Access with Training and Oversightmethodology: commitment-based AED donationBy donating AEDs only to organizations that commit to training, medical oversight, and maintenance, the foundation ensures sustained and effective use of life-saving equipment, because technology alone is insufficient without implementation readiness.
- Policy Advocacy for Mandatory AEDs in Youth Sportsmethodology: policy_advocacy_for_safety_equipmentBy advocating for mandatory AED placement in youth athletic and county-owned sports facilities, the foundation increases access and ensures preparedness during emergencies, because policy change institutionalizes life-saving equipment in high-risk settings.
- Public Education and Awareness for Preventive Heart Healthmethodology: public_education_and_advocacyBy raising public and youth-specific awareness about AEDs and pediatric cardiac screenings, the foundation prevents sudden cardiac death, because early recognition and preventive measures improve survival outcomes.
- Rapid Response Defibrillationmethodology: rapid-response defibrillationBy deploying AEDs within the first three minutes of sudden cardiac arrest, survival chances are significantly increased, because each minute without defibrillation decreases survival probability by 10%.
