Project ADAM provides CPR training, AEDs to treat cardiac arrest in schools

In 1999, Adam Lemel, a Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin teen collapsed during a basketball game at an opposing school. An automated external defibrillator (AED) could have saved his life, but there wasn’t one on-site. Although help arrived within minutes, it was too late. After, his parents teamed up with a doctor to create Project ADAM.
