Purpose
The Superior Health Foundation’s AED Program is intended to supply lifesaving devices to nonprofit organizations across the Upper Peninsula. SHF receives a number of AED requests each year, and this program represents an efficient and cost-effective way to address these needs.
WHO SHOULD APPLY
Any tax-exempt organization that has or utilizes public space, hosts group events or activities, or serves a large number of older adults can submit a request for an AED.
Application Process
Please visit our grants portal to apply.
Applicants will be asked to provide their EIN, proof of tax-exempt status, and information about how many individuals they serve in person, what kind of group activities they hold, and where the AED will be kept.
AEDs are disbursed on a first-come, first-served basis to qualified nonprofit and tax-exempt organizations. Organizations are eligible for one AED. Applicants must certify that they are prepared to cover battery and pad replacement costs when they expire.
For more information, please contact the Superior Health Foundation at shf@shfmi.org.
