Our Vision
Our vision at Olivia’s Heart Project is to increase awareness and prevent Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) in children and young adults through Community Heart Screenings, education and increased accessibility to life saving Automated External Defibrillators (AED’s). By working with the Kern High School District to place AED’s on every Kern high school campus, and by joining forces with Start A Heart Bakersfield, a coalition of our local healthcare organizations, our plan is to educate and train school personnel and coaches with CPR and AED training to increasing the survival rate from Sudden Cardiac Arrest.
As we push forward into our second year, we plan to begin bi-annual heart screening events for your adults, ages 12 to 18. Through donations and your support we plan to take our mission as far as our message can reach so we can all work together to Keep Young Hearts Beating!
