TRAVIS R ROY SUDDEN CARDIAC ARREST FUND
Raising Awareness So Others May Survice
Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Lack of Awareness that Sudden Cardiac Arrest is the leading cause of death nation-wide on school campuses and the subsequent lack of preparedeness (i.e., not having Automated External Defibrillators on campuses).
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
AED Placement - Schools/Public Facilities
Ultimately, our goal is the placement Automated External Defibrillators (AED's) in every school and public facility in California.
Since The Travis Fund was formed in 2006, we have been responsible for the placement of 226 AED's.

Goals & Strategy

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Our goals are to:
1. Raise funds to place AED's in every school in California
2. Encourage at-risk individuals to have heart screenings
3. Raise awareness about Sudden Cardiac Arrest
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
1. Raise awareness about Sudden Cardiac Arrest through social and electronic media and speaking at public events and conferences.
2. Fund raising to place AED's in schools.
3. Partner with like-minded individuals and organizations to leverage abilities to raise awareness and funds for AED placements and CPR training.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
1. Public speaking on Sudden Cardiac Arrest and the need for CPR training and the placement of AED's in all schools.
2. Awareness campaign via social media and radio interviews on all iHeart Media stations in Southern California.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
1. To-date, 205 AED's placed in Riverside and San Diego County schools. Need to place at least 500 AED's.
2. Over 200 people trained in CPR. Need to train over 2,000.
3. Three AED saves on campuses where we placed AED's. Need to increase that tenfold.
