Trying to grow my community safety program

Hi everyone. I run a small startup community‑focused safety training program in South Florida called L&S Vital Training & Consulting. My goal is simple:

teach everyday people how to save lives.

I provide hands‑only CPR, Narcan/overdose response training, Stop the Bleed, and basic emergency readiness classes for families, youth groups, churches, and underserved communities. A lot of the people who need this training the most can’t afford it, so I’ve been offering free or low‑cost classes whenever possible.

Right now, I’m trying to grow the program, but I’m limited by equipment. CPR manikins, AED trainers, Narcan demo kits, and bleeding‑control supplies are expensive, and I’ve been covering everything out of pocket.

I created a GoFundMe to help with equipment costs so I can continue offering free community classes. Even $5 genuinely helps. Sharing the link also helps a lot.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I appreciate this community more than you know.
