The Reviving Hearts Program has been designed by the Cardiovascular Research and Education Foundation of Indiana (CREFI) and The Care Group.
The goal of this community program is to place over 400 Automated Electronic Defibrillators (AEDs) into Indiana High Schools over five years. (details here)  
To date over 20 AEDs have been deployed.

This year they are holding a Dining A La Heart Fundraiser to benefit the placement of AEDs, with training and follow up procedures, in local high schools—for every $2500 raised one more school can be “protected”.

Ask any family member or parent whose loved one or child has died from SCA and they will say three letters might have saved their loved one’s life… AED.
