The Dylan Williams Forever An All Star Foundation’s mission is to help increase awareness and provide support for life-saving efforts. This important mission has helped provide automated external defibrillators (AED) to this and surrounding communities. The Williams Foundation has donated at least one AED to every school in Drake and Randolph County. They have donated 80 AEDs total in Indiana, Ohio, Virginia and just recently 2 to North Carolina. AED’s saves thousands of lives each year. UC Indians would like to say a big thank you to the Williams family for helping to turn tragedy into triumph and keeping Dylan’s memory alive.
