The Marion County High School Interact Club has made what could be a potential life-saving donation to Jasper area schools.
The club purchased and donated Greg 02 LifeVac anti-choking devices to Jasper Elementary School, Jasper Middle School, and Marion County High School.

The LifeVac devices are a special mask and pump device that are used to stop a choking accident and save lives when time is of the essence.
Chattanooga-based Greg 02 foundation works in conjunction with several sponsors including LifeVac with the mission in mind to place a device in every restaurant, nursing home, daycare, and emergency response vehicle in the area. The foundation was formed by friends and family of Greg Creswell who tragically lost his life after a choking incident at a Chattanooga restaurant in 2022.
For the MCHS Interact Club, the donation comes as part of the club’s ongoing mission to help the community and to ensure the safety of students and staff in our area schools.
