The mission of Bolt for the Heart is to save lives by education, financial assistance and direct support in placing lifesaving AEDs into the hands of our Law-Enforcement Heroes.

why we run

Our annual Bolt for the Heart family run events raise funds to support our efforts in the placement of AEDs in a lifesaving effort of people who experience sudden cardiac arrest.

what is an aed?

An AED is a portable Automated External Defibrillator used to restart someone’s heart in the event of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA).

problem and solution
