The Honor Bonner Initiative aims to raise awareness about Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) and Sudden Cardiac Death (SCD) in young people. We are dedicated to advocating for life-saving heart screenings in schools and promoting the accessibility of Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) in public areas.

The Honor Bonner Initiative was created to promote heart-health awareness and community care. Our mission includes funding an outdoor AED for a Columbus park, honoring local first responders, and working toward future EKG heart screenings for local youth.

2025 has been a year of both heartbreak and hope.
This year, the Honor Bonner Initiative reached an important milestone with approval for the placement of an AED in our community. Installation is planned for 2026, and this step represents a meaningful commitment to heart health, preparedness, and saving lives.
We were also honored to host our first Hearts & Heroes Dinner, providing a Christmas Eve meal to the dedicated Fire and EMS crew at Station 12. This meal was a small gesture of gratitude for those who serve our community every day, and we intend for Hearts & Heroes to become an annual tradition.
While we are proud of what was accomplished, there is not a single day that passes without missing Anthony. Everything we do through this initiative is rooted in love for him — to honor his life, keep his spirit present, and transform our grief into action that helps others.
Thank you to everyone who has supported, donated, shared, and stood beside us this year. Your kindness helps ensure that Anthony’s legacy continues to live on through compassion, community, and care.
