Mission

TO PROVIDE AED MEDICAL UNITS TO NEEDED AREAS IN THE PUBLIC.

  • ADVOCATES FOR HEALTH BELIEVES IN MAKING AEDS MORE ACCESSIBLE TO THE PUBLIC 24/7. ONE OF OUR GOALS IS TO IDENTIFY AREAS WHERE PUBLIC ACCESS TO AN AED WOULD BE BENEFICIAL. OFTEN TIMES AEDS ARE LOCKED OR NOT AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC. BY PLACING AN AED IN A SMART MONITORED CABINET, IT CAN BE AVAILABLE IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY BY A BYSTANDER UNTIL MEDICAL HELP ARRIVES. STATISTICS SHOW THAT EARLY INTERVENTION WITH CPR AND THE USE OF AN AED DURING A SUDDEN CARDIAC ARREST IS CRITICAL IN SURVIVAL RATES. OUR MISSION IS TO PROVIDE PUBLIC ACCESS TO AEDS AND ALSO TO INFORM COMMUNITIES OF THEIR IMPORTANCE. CPR/AED INFORMATION SESSIONS ARE HELD IN COMMUNITIES TO HELP ENCOURAGE AND EMPOWER INDIVIDUALS TO TAKE ACTION DURING A CARDIAC EVENT. DIRECTIONAL SIGNAGE IS ALSO INCLUDED TO INFORM PEOPLE AND HELP DIRECT TOWARDS THE PUBLIC ACCESS AED CABINET. SINCE INCEPTION, ADVOCATES FOR HEALTH HAS SURPASSED OVER 350 UNITS INSTALLED. FUNDS RAISED AT THE ANNUAL GOLF TOURNAMENT GO TOWARDS FUNDING NEW AED INSTALLATIONS, PARTIALLY FUNDING LOCATIONS THAT ARE RAISING MONEY FOR A SPECIFIC LOCATION OR CAUSE, HELPING TO FUND ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEES THAT WERE FUNDED THROUGH A ONE TIME GRANT AND NEED FUTURE FUNDING, AND CPR/AED TRAINING IN COMMUNITIES THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN TRAINED BUT WANT MORE TRAINING. IN 2025, ADVOCATES FOR HEALTH STARTED ADDING OTHER LIFESAVING ITEMS TO THE TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED CABINETS WITH THE OPTION TO ADD STOP THE BLEED KITS AND NASAL NALOXONE. THE ITEMS ARE ALSO INCORPORATED IN THE TRAINING PROGRAM.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

The four totals the IRS asks for on Part I of the Form 990, as filed. A dash means the figure was not present on the return — not that it was zero.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.

What this page reflects

The registration facts above come from the IRS Business Master File published 13 October 2026 and read 1 November 2026, for every organization at once. Returns through tax year 2025, the newest we have parsed for this organization.
