Nice gift !

We’re thrilled to celebrate a life-saving milestone through Project AED365! Thanks to the collaboration between Project ADAM, Project AED365 and Coro Medical, an AED was recently donated to Power Center Academy Southeast, a school with Gestalt Community Schools—one of our valued Le Bonheur community partners. Chelcie Oseni, the clinical manager of School Health for Le Bonheur Community Outreach, delivered the device to the school.

This donation is part of a broader initiative to equip youth-based organizations with essential emergency response tools. Each Project AED365 donation package includes a ZOLL AED 3, three years of AED 365 Pro Program Management, one seat for HSI’s Remote Skills Verification (RSV) training and a LifeVac choking rescue device.

Le Bonheur Children's has been a Project ADAM Affiliate since 2021 and has helped 32 schools in West Tennessee achieve Heart Safe designation. Together with partners like Project ADAM, Project AED365 and Coro Medical, we’re empowering communities with the tools and training needed to respond effectively in cardiac emergencies and save lives.
