Holiday4Hearts · A place for the next AED

Where could the next AED make a difference?

You don’t need to sponsor a Holiday Wreath to apply. Holiday Wreath recipients and the AED recipient are chosen separately.

This year’s award: a LIFEPAK CR2 Defibrillator, a Type 1 Personal First Aid Kit and an AED prep kit.

Recipient selection: Friday, December 18, 2026.

Who can apply

Anyone can apply. The AED will go to a space serving the Annapolis Valley community, where it could make the greatest difference.

How the recipient is chosen

Selection is based on community impact. Sponsoring a Holiday Wreath does not influence the decision. Preference is given to:

  • High-traffic community spaces
  • Spaces serving a high volume of vulnerable people

Caring for the AED

BraveHeart will teach the recipient how to care for and maintain the AED.
