This holiday season, LoanMart gave back to the community by donating an Automated External Defibrillators (“AED”) machine to the Granada Hills Little League. The league received the donation on December 9, 2017. “LoanMart stepped up to the plate and hit a home run!” says the Granada Hills Little League board.

AED machines play a major role in saving the lives of countless children who suffer from an irregular heartbeat while being active, particularly during sporting events.

In May of 2016, a 13-year-old baseball player from Indiana recovered from a near death experience on the field, an AED machine saved his life. The boy, whose father prefers that he remain anonymous, suffered a hit to the chest from high-speed pitch. Certified coaches tried performing CPR, but the boy was unresponsive. Luckily, there was an AED machine close by at a concession stand to save the boy’s life. “Without that, it probably would have been a totally different result,” the boy’s father said.

American Red Cross says that all Americans should be within four minutes of an AED and someone trained to use it. LoanMart is thrilled to give the Granada Hills Little League the gift of safer baseball games for this season and the years to come.
