American Heart Association donates CPR kits to Alachua County schools for summer training

The American Heart Association Heart Walk provided 12 CPR training kits to Alachua County Public Schools through a grant from the HCA Foundation. Elementary students attending Hidden Oak’s summer camp were the first in the district to use the kits, practicing emergency response scenarios alongside several University of Florida football players. Participants will gain hands-on familiarity with life-saving techniques but will not earn formal CPR certification.
