Why Give?
This #GivingTuesday, Hillcroft Services is accepting donations for new heart defibrillators for our buildings. Each one costs $1300.00 and we would like to have at least 3 on hand in our facilities.
#iHeartHillcroft
We have a day for giving thanks. We have two for getting deals. Now, we have #GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated to giving back.
Automated external defibrillators (AEDs), like the one pictured, are used to treat sudden cardiac arrest and greatly increase the chances of surviving such an event. In an effort to keep our residents and staff as safe as possible, we would like to equip each of our three facilities with an AED.
This #GivingTuesday we’ll be asking for donations to make this purchase possible. Help us reach our goal of $3,900.
“Early recognition and CPR are crucial for survival from cardiac arrest. High-Quality CPR consists of three parts – Compressions, Breaths and the use of an AED. Adding the use of an AED will improve the chance of survival 7 to 10 % .”
