Our story
Bite Aid started after a close mate was attacked and survived because someone on the beach knew how to control a severe bleed. That day made it clear how much can come down to preparation.
What began as a response in our own community has grown into a wider effort to help other coastal towns be better prepared too.
Our kits
Sealed inside a durable, weatherproof housing is a carefully selected set of essential trauma supplies, along with clear, step-by-step incident management cards.
It's designed so that anyone on the scene, regardless of medical training, can step in and help until emergency services arrive.
