A beautiful act of generosity and perfect timing! ❤️ Cesar Cruz from the The Security Centre Limited donated an AED in memory of the beloved Captain Robert Hamaty. When he connected with Tortuga Cayman's Mrs. Carlene Hamaty, she knew the Cayman Heart Foundation was the perfect match to pass it on.

At the same time, Pastor Darren from Church of God, George Town reached out in need of an AED for their congregation — and just like that, everything aligned. 🙌

Now this life-saving device has a new home where it’s truly needed!

Pictured:

We proudly unveiled new Heart Heroes at the Cayman Islands Health Services Authority (HSA) George Town Hospital. These individuals are more than names on a wall — they represent courage, resilience, and the power of community.

The Heart Heroes Programme is more than just a title — it’s a journey, a lifeline, and a symbol of hope. Every Heart Hero reminds us that strength comes in many forms — and that love, determination, and support are at the heart of everything we do.

Thank you to our Heart Heroes for inspiring us all.

Along a quiet stretch of an arterial corridor of the George Town Hospital, is a wall of 'heroes', whose images serve as silent testament to a hard-fought battle against heart disease.
