Free AED Awareness Training

We are excited to share that, with the support of our local community, we recently completed a campaign to purchase and install an Automated External Defibrillator (AED). This life-saving device is designed to assist first responders in the event of a cardiac arrest and will be accessible 24/7 to help protect those in our area.

Many local businesses generously contributed to this initiative, and we are grateful for the shared commitment to improving community safety. To ensure everyone feels confident in using the AED if ever needed, we are offering free 30-minute training sessions to all local businesses.
