AITX’s Subsidiary Robotic Assistance Devices Selects Initial Recipients of ‘Bailey’s Gift’ School Firearm Detection Campaign
Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc., along with its wholly owned subsidiary Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD) announced the selection of the initial 5 recipients of its school firearm detection campaign. The program, Bailey’s Gift, is named in memory of Bailey Holt, who was shot and killed by a gunman during the January 23, 2018, Marshall County High School shooting in rural Kentucky.
The campaign was initially designed to provide 10 ROSA security robots with firearm detection capabilities to underfunded or vulnerable K-12 schools in the US. On July 26th, the Company announced that it was expanding the number of donated units to as many as 45, by directing net proceeds from its continuing ROSA NFT sales to support the ‘Bailey’s Gift’ campaign.
“We’re pleased to have selected the first group of amazing schools that are eager to embrace solutions that will change and save lives,” said Steve Reinharz, CEO of AITX and RAD. “Two of the schools selected are here in Detroit and in great need of enhanced security. Applications keep coming in, and we will soon announce the next group of selected and deserving schools, spanning the entire country.”

“I want to thank RAD for finding common sense solutions applying technology to school applications,” said Christopher Lynch, President of Detroit Cristo Rey High School. “We hope to minimize any threat of violence around the school while maintaining a welcoming, inclusive learning environment with strong security. The ROSA solution seems to strike a nice balance, without an overt sense of ‘policing’ at our school that traditional metal detectors convey.”
Also selected to receive ROSA units were 2 schools in Kentucky, plus a Northern California high school.
“I am so blessed to be a part of this beautiful campaign,” said Secret Holt, mother of school shooting victim Bailey Holt. “I am so excited for these schools, their faculty, and students. Bailey will be with you every single day, and that makes my heart smile.”
“Every school that has been awarded a Bailey’s Gift ROSA is so appreciative and excited,” said Doug Clemons, Chief Marketing Officer at RAD. “These schools have been yearning for a tangible defensive advantage that can help keep them secure. We expect to be able to identify all awarded schools once they have completed the acceptance process.”
The Company believes that there are over 100,000 K-12 schools that could immediately benefit from this firearm detection technology. RAD’s solution deploys quickly and provides a non-biased level of early detection and deterrence to potential firearm related events in and around these buildings.
