Gaithersburg, MD – Rescue One Training For Life, Inc., a leader in providing life-saving training and equipment, is proud to partner with Huddle for Hearts, an initiative by The Peyton Walker Foundation and University of Tennessee Wide Receiver Bru McCoy.

The Game Plan

Under the terms of Bru McCoy’s NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) agreement with The Peyton Walker Foundation, every touchdown he scores will result in a donated AED for communities in need. This unprecedented move fuses sports, community engagement, and life-saving measures into a cohesive initiative.

Jeremy Gruber, CEO of Rescue One Training For Life, Inc., added, “We are thrilled to be part of this LIFESAVING initiative. Every AED we place in a community increases the chances of survival from sudden cardiac arrest. With Bru McCoy’s athletic talent, we are celebrating touchdowns and the potential of lives saved.”

“Huddle For Hearts is the name of my initiative to spread awareness of sudden cardiac arrest and raise money to bring AED’s to underprivileged communities as well as CPR and AED use! I look forward to continuing to do things like this & help any community in need!”  Bru McCoy, UTSSports.com.

Next Steps

Bru McCoy will be taking the field in games this football season. The partners encourage fans and supporters to tune in and cheer as each touchdown holds the promise of a life saved.

The Peyton Walker Foundation was established in memory of 19 year old Peyton, whose young and vibrant life was stolen by Sudden Cardiac Arrest on November 2, 2013. Motivation to establish the foundation came from the words that were emblazoned on the shirt Peyton was wearing on November 2nd: “What we do for ourselves dies with us….What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal.” (Albert Pines) Her shirt called her family to action…establishing the Foundation to save young lives so that other families would never know the heartache of losing a child without warning to Sudden Cardiac Arrest.
