Help-A-Heart program goal
We empower people to take action & save lives with basic CPR skills through a quick, hands-on experience with a CPR dummy & AED (Automated External Defibrillator).
According to the American Heart Association’s 2018 report:
-
25% of all deaths in the US are from cardiac arrest
-
Nearly 90% of the 356,000 annual, US, out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) are fatal
-
68.5% OHCAs happen at home & 21% in a public setting
Survival rates triple when bystander CPR is promptly administered -- & further double when an AED is used before EMS crews arrive. Join one of our free, hands-on, Help-a-Heart CPR events to find out how easy it can be to save a life.

Hitting close to home...
Paddle4Good founder Max Montgomery dropped on the beach without a pulse after SUP surfing in Capitola, CA on Oct 21, 2017. Within seconds, his paddling companion (a highly-skilled doctor) realized the severity of the situation & started CPR. She also engaged a team of passersby to help and call 911. While his heart didn't restart until the 6th defibrillator shock in the ambulance, their quick action saved his life. The Help-a-Heart CPR program was created to empower people with the basic CPR skills so that others may be as lucky as Max & get a second chance at life.
