Life Preserver Placement

Placing life preservers in public locations near water directly supports our mission by:

  • Providing immediate, life-saving tools in high-risk areas where drownings can occur

  • Increasing public awareness of water safety—especially in communities with children and individuals on the spectrum

  • Creating safer environments that give families and caregivers greater peace of mind

  • Promoting inclusion by acknowledging and addressing the unique safety needs of neurodivergent individuals in public spaces

Every life preserver we install is a visible, accessible reminder of our mission and a step toward preventing another loss like Brady’s.

We're on a mission to install 10 life preservers in public areas near water by the end of 2025—and we can't do it without your support.

While we're actively identifying potential locations, we’d love to hear from you. If there's a spot in your community where you believe a life preserver could make a difference, let us know!

This year, we proudly installed our first life preserver at The Pit in Tecumseh, MI—the very place that inspired the creation of The Brady Effect. As new locations are confirmed, we’ll post updates here so our supporters can follow along.
