Organize CPR Training For youth
Promote safety by hosting CPR training workshops that can get youth within your community CPR certified. The youths of your community can learn how to conduct CPR, making more employment positions available to them!
How might this help your community?
CPR can save lives, and training youth to get their certification can increase the safety levels of a neighbourhood.
This workshop will make CPR training more accessible to youths. This is beneficial as CPR-certified youth can now apply for jobs that require certification.
