In a significant stride towards enhancing community safety, Farm Bureau Insurance of Michigan proudly partners with Sports Image®’s OPERATION AED Program to give fully automatic Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) to Michigan School Districts. This initiative is aimed at ensuring the availability of life-saving equipment in critical locations in schools. Nationwide, schools have seen an uptick in cardiac incidents brought to prominence in early 2023 when Damar Hamlin of the Buffalo Bills had a cardiac event on the field during a game vs the Cincinnati Bengals. 

Recognizing the importance of immediate response in emergencies, Farm Bureau Insurance of Michigan has partnered with Sports Image® to contribute to the overall safety of the community. Through the Operation AED Program, Farm Bureau Insurance of Michigan is donating state-of-the-art, fully automatic AEDs to schools in Michigan, reinforcing its commitment to supporting local schools and ensuring the well-being of students, faculty, and staff if one is ever needed. 

The donated AEDs are equipped with cutting-edge technology, making them easy to use even for those with minimal training. These devices have the potential to save lives by providing crucial support in cardiac emergencies until professional medical assistance arrives. 

The Starr Agency is proud to be the sponsor of Bedford High and Monroe High. We are proud to provide an AED and to make our local school a safer place for all. Pictured is Monroe High School's athletic trainer Nicole DeVol, she is excited and grateful for the support and contribution to helping the Monroe athletic programs. This specific AED will support the softball program and other outdoor sports near this facility.
