The Aliver Foundation

What The Aliver Foundation does

The Aliver Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in January 2024 by cardiac arrest survivor Jill A. Pall and headquartered in Garwood, New Jersey. Its mission is to place bright-yellow, all-weather, climate-controlled, tamper-proof outdoor AED equipment in public recreation spaces and to deliver cardiac arrest education and survivor support resources. The organization operates as an all-volunteer entity with no paid staff; leadership covers administrative costs personally, and 100% of donations are directed to AED equipment purchases.

The core offering is a standardized Outdoor AED Equipment Bundle priced at $2,500, consisting of a CE TEK 4000 outdoor AED enclosure paired with a Stryker (Heartsine Samaritan 350P) defibrillator. Nearly 160 such bundles had been placed across more than ten U.S. states as of late 2025/early 2026, with over 100 concentrated in Union County, NJ. Two memorial-driven sub-brands — Bryson's Bundles (Pennsylvania, launched June 2025) and Field of Hearts: Addie's Mission (Idaho, launched June 2025) — extend the model state-by-state. A companion children's book, Pacey The Happy Heart, extends the mission into family education.

Revenue is 100% donation-based, drawn from one-time gifts (Zeffy, Venmo, PayPal, ACH), the recurring Pacer monthly giving program, Etsy merchandise through partner LeZeal by Hopify Custom Tees, vehicle donations processed via CARS, and Flower Power plant sales at a 40-50% revenue share. Customer-facing segments include municipalities and parks/recreation departments (installation hosts), first responder organizations, Heartraiser small businesses, sudden cardiac arrest survivors and their loved ones, and families using the children's book. Partnerships span the PWHL's New York Sirens, AED Team, multiple Rotary and Jaycee clubs, and the Gaudreau Family Foundation. The foundation has earned Candid's Platinum Transparency Seal in each year of operation (2024, 2025, 2026), a credential held by roughly 0.4% of US 501(c)(3) nonprofits.
