Be the Cure - CPR in the Schools

Help me give my students hands on learning opportunities for life saving measures.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Upenieks's classroom raised $2,170

My Students

Our Science and Technology Academy has highly motivated students. They are enthusiastic about science and enjoy learning through hands-on activities. Our students want to be prepared to be leaders.

Students are choosing to learn about CPR and First Aid.

Our students want to be prepared if there should ever be an emergency no matter where they are. The hands-on tools are extremely helpful for students to understand first aid processes. Any donations to my class will help my students explore science through interactive activities.

Thank you!

My Project

These manikins will give hands on opportunities to practice the skills necessary to save lives. Students will learn life saving measures as well as scenario playing to get a taste of what might happen outside of the classroom. When performed immediately, CPR can double or triple a person’s chance of survival.

By donating to this project you will give my students the chance to have the most realistic opportunity so they will be well prepared for real life situations.

Having the kits will allow students to have hands on opportunities to learn the life saving skills. Welcome to the next generation of lifesavers.
