CPR/AED Marathon For Combat Wounded Veterans

Do you or your loved ones know what to do if someone needed CPR?
Did you know that 80% of Cardiac Arrest happens in the home, and if you and your children aren't prepared with knowing what to do then only calling 911 to save your loved one will only get them a 5 to 8% chance of survival.
Learn Hands-Only CPR and survival chances can rise up to 34%.
Learn chest compressions, rescue breathing and how to use an AED and chances of survival can rise up to over 50%.

Take a CPR/AED course to do more for your loved ones while at the same time you will help an excellent non-profit, Warfighter Made, located in the Temecula Valley.  Your participation will be mean that 50% of the proceeds will be donated to help our combat wounded veterans.

Participate in my Heartsaver CPR/AED marathon from May 16th to May 18th to earn your  2 year American Heart Association certification which is excellent for: gift certificates for teachers/coaches, new parents, grandparents, siblings, babysitters, caregivers, physical therapists, chiropractors, life guards, personal trainers, Scout Leaders, restaurant employees, and so many more!  

If your office, school or place of worship needs several people certified call me and I can schedule to come out to you at no extra cost.  The BLS Healthcare Provider course is also available.  You don't have to wait for the marathon dates to help out Warfighter Made.  Just mention the CPR Marathon and 50% of the proceeds will still go to them!
