In 2023, the Academy of Model Aeronautics Foundation created the Save A Life Grant in order to help promote safer and more medically equipped flying sites. This grant is designed to reimburse clubs for 25% (up to $200) of the cost of a recently purchased Automated External Defibrillator (AED). AEDs, which are easy to use, can be critical when helping someone who is experiencing sudden cardiac arrest.
