set to expand
Pre-Hospital Blood Transfusion Program
in Cobb County
Building Strong Horizons, Inc. is dedicated to enhancing community health. Thanks to Piedmont Church's generous $1,800 donation, we are assisting Puckett EMS with launching their Pre-Hospital Blood Transfusion Program.
Building Strong Horizons Announces Late 2026 / Early 2027 the launch of LIMA the first donated L.I.F.E. Fleet Unit.
The inaugural unit of our L.I.F.E. Fleet is officially on the horizon! The specialized unit set, named "LIMA," was made possible through a legacy donation from the Charlene Rae Langwald Trust. Set to deploy between late 2026 and early 2027, LIMA will serve as the premier launching unit for Puckett EMS, bringing critical, lifesaving capabilities directly to patients in the field.

Cobb County Fire and Emergency Services launched its Pre-Hospital Blood Transfusion in February 2025. Building Strong Horizon's 2025 Profound Impact was awarded to F.E./Paramedic Kleiman and F.F./Paramedic LaPrade for saving multiple lives within the first month of launching the program.
In August 2025, we officially launched the Anchor of Life initative—a vital avenue of support dedicated to the expansion and long-term sustainability of the pre-hospital blood transfusion program. This initiative secures the critical funding needed to keep life-saving units operational and ready to serve at a moment's notice. By bridging the gap in emergency trauma care, Anchor of Life ensures that hospital-grade intervention remains a permanent, reliable resource for our entire community.
In December, we had the honor of recognizing both EMS Division Chief *APEX Award) and Lt. Kleiman (Cornerstone of Success) for their exceptional dedication and leadership in the successful launch of the Pre-Hospital Blood Transfusion program. Their incredible work was formally acknowledged with awards highlighting their significant contributions.
Building Strong Horizons is spearheading operations to expand Cobb County's Pre-Hospital Blood Transfusion program. The Anchor of Life initiative has a long term goal of having 5 units strategically placed throughout Cobb County.
BSH has nicknamed this fleet: LIFE "LIFE" LIMA-INDIA-FOXTROT-ECHO

High performance, yet compact and lightweight, the Warrior lite is an optimal configuration for space and weight restricted rescue teams, first responders, emergency medical services (EMS), helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS), and critical care transport teams.
