PLEASANTON, Calif. — The nonprofit PulsePoint Foundation is rewarding communities for identifying and registering AEDs in October, which is Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness Month.

Each AED registered this month will gain the entrant a chance to win one of 10 $500 Amazon gift cards. The community that collectively registers the highest number of AEDs will win $5,000 to purchase new AEDs from PulsePoint.

The AEDs must be registered through the free PulsePoint AED app or online at AED.new.
