Grant title: Expand The Training Of Basic Life Supporting and Emergency Preparedness Skills

Dear Ms. Tuttle:

Save A Life Foundation is a 501 C (3} organization dedicated to working with the public health infrastructure to ensure the creation of a safety net for everyday citizens in the their communities. We train citizens in life supporting first aid skills, with a particular focus on children (K-12} in age appropriate programs that include i.e., Heimlich Maneuver, CPR, bleed control, blood borne- bio hazardous precautions, access EMS, deployment of AED's_ Since 1997 SALF has trained nearly 1 million children in Illinois, moving into Wisconsin in 2003 and are about to expand our system of training into even more emergency and public health departments which SALF establishes its branch sites_ Using their local emergency medical service providers as our instructors we are able to train children K-6th grades our Save A Life For Kids program (1 hour), and 7th to 12th graders our Bystander Basic program (2 hours) with remarkable success, both in skills retention and increased willingness by these same students to aid the injured or ill at a time of an emergency. The proof of this accomplishment is due to our web base data collection system participated by each student.

GRANT ACTIVITIES In order for SALF to expand its base site in each targeted state SALF must:

- Locate a hospital to home a branch Find and train an individual with EMS credentials to serve as a Facilitator Obtain support from a physician to serve as Project Medical Director Obtain support of local mayors to establish a Citizen Corps Council and apply for funds to support the school training · Identify EMS providers and train as instructors Identify local corporations willing to Adopt A School to defer training costs Identify schools, schedule classes between schools and Instructors Evaluate class and test students for skills proficiency

Each Instructor receives compensation for their travel and time which aids greatly in supplementing their meager professional income while off duty.

Page 8: Carol Spizzirri Lies On Federal Application

Page2 Save A Life Foundation April 13, 2004

Over the years SALF has been embraced by many including being the second affiliate of the U.S. Homeland Security's Citizen Corps in January 2003, Illinois Homeland Security's Terrorism Task Force, 2001 and alike. Our partners include the U.S. Conference of Mayors, State Municipal Leagues, Chicago Bar Association, Chicago Public Schools, Global Ronald McDonald's House Charities, and so forth.

My greatest pleasure besides seeing the children's faces as they discover their new ability to save a life, working with CDC since 2001, is serving with Dr. Peter Safar (Father of CPR) and Dr. Henry Heimlich (Heimlich Maneuver) SALF's founding Medical Board, to train the critical mass should they faced an emergency.

Everyone has a emergency role. The "Pre-EMS" role is the most crucial in maintaining life until advance EMS arrives. SALF feel fortunate that CDC feels the same.
