Empowering Athletes, Protecting Hearts, Saving Lives

Huddle For Hearts® is a national life-saving initiative from The Peyton Walker Foundation and collegiate/high school athletes dedicated to fighting Sudden Cardiac Arrest.

Through Huddle For Hearts® program, AEDs and CPR training are donated to youth sports organizations, especially in underserved communities, where kids play, practice, and gather. Early defibrillation with an AED can mean the difference between life and death.

Athletes are encouraged to become Heart Heroes by helping fundraise, securing performance-based sponsorships, and supporting AED placement and CPR training for coaches, players, and parents. We also provide guidance to create emergency response plans that save lives. For more information, contact Julie Walker.
