So, uh, so we're very closely affiliated with UW lacrosse's athletics department and, uh,

Coach Moran Lonning, Charlie's mother is the head coach of the women's basketball team there.

So we have a really tight knit network and family and community there already for the team.

And those women that play on the team, they're four years in, they graduate, they move on, but they're alumni and they're connected.

Charlie passed away two weeks before practice started.

And that whole summer, all the girls on the team knew Charlie intimately.

They babysat for him.

When I turned 40 years old, my wife,

gave me a surprise birthday party and all the women's basketball team watched Charlie and then Moran and Alex joined me for the birthday.

And it was like, they are just a tight knit community there.

When it comes to like the broader aspect of it all, people have heard about us through the news reports and the magazine reports.

And there's a, a school district outside of lacrosse, because again, we were focused, like hyper-focused on lacrosse state licensed childcare centers and

And this about 45 minutes away, there's a township called North Crawford and their elementary school and has a early education program.

And that individual who ran that was like, hey, if you guys are buying AEDs and setting up lacrosse, we're interested.

We're going to start fundraising for one.

We want to know if it's possible to get one.

Do you have any recommendations what to do?

And I was like, great.

This is the perfect opportunity for me to share this knowledge we have on what AED we're purchasing.

and explain to them how they can raise 1200 bucks to do it.
