This week, AKOUNOUKA trained more than 30 athletes in life-saving CPR skills, empowering them to become advocates for emergency response and cardiac arrest awareness within Haiti's sports community.
Every practice, every game, and every tournament bring together hundreds of athletes, coaches, families, and fans. When a cardiac emergency occurs, the first few minutes can mean the difference between life and death. By equipping athletes with CPR knowledge, we are building a culture where teammates are prepared to help teammates.
Today's athletes are tomorrow's coaches, mentors, and community leaders. By spreading CPR knowledge throughout Haiti's sporting community, CPR awareness is replacing a dangerous knowledge gap that has too often contributed to preventable deaths. Every person trained represents another opportunity for a life to be saved.
One heartbeat. One teammate. One life saved.
