I am fundraising in memory of my niece, Janet Zilinski.  Janet passed away from Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) at the age of 11 during cheerleading practice.  She had no previous symptoms or warnings.

The Janet Fund was established by my sister and brother-in-law to raise awareness to SCA and educate and inform people about CPR and AEDs.  

Janet's Law was passed in NJ on 9/12/12 which requires all public and private schools in NJ to have an AED on site, have 5 employees certified in CPR/AED and have the AED accessible for after-school sports events and practices.  The fund has trained over 6,000 people, donated over 500 AEDs and helped save many lives in NJ.

Thank you for joining me in this year's annual AT&T/AHA Heart Walk fundraiser.  We can all make a difference in helping to save lives from SCA and heart disease.

With Much Appreciation,

Nancy
