It’s a great day when hard work and effort pays off! After raising awareness and funds at the Live with Heart event on 2/23/2022, the VZF, along with the Monmouth Ocean Development Council, donated a defribulator to Riverside Gardens park in Red Bank. Tens of thousands of people pass through or visit that park every year. Every second counts in a cardiac emergency and this device right on the premises, can help save a life.

A HUGE thank you to the MODC, Ben Waldron and Debra Deb Rizzi, Jim Schatzle of Team Life, Oscar Salinas of RB Parks and Rec, Red Bank Police Chief Darren O’Connell, and Len Garza of Garza Business and Estate Law for their efforts and contributions to this project.
