While we are fortunate to have excellent First Responders, on average, the most rapid response is six minutes in the Fredericksburg area. The brain of an individual suffering an out-of-hospital cardiac event begins to lose function after 4-6 minutes, at a rate of 10% per minute – assuming there are no pre-existing or compounding health issues. 

Gwyneth’s Gift Foundation is one of few nonprofits in the Commonwealth that provides Hands-Only CPR and AED training for free. We also procure and gift community organizations and businesses with opportunities to place AEDs. When bystanders are trained in Hands-Only CPR and given the confidence to act quickly, the response can begin within 1-2 minutes, drastically increasing the chance of survival and cognitive recovery. 

When you donate to Gwyneth’s Gift Foundation, 100% of your donation goes directly into our community programs. Our sponsors make it possible for us to train individuals in life-saving skills, educate the public on the importance of Hands-Only CPR, and place additional AEDs in the community and across the Commonwealth.
