St. John Ambulance Ongoing through Saturday, June 30, 2012, 6pm City / Town : Edmonton Event Venue : Other Short Description : Pay It Forward Event Category : Charity / Non-Profit Additional Information : From May through June, 2012, St. John Ambulance is asking people who have current First Aid training to help their loved ones receive valuable training through a Pay It Forward promotion. This promotion encourages Albertans to take First Aid and CPR training to learn life-saving skills that truly can make a difference during an emergency., The public is encouraged to ask themselves the question “Who can help you when you can’t help yourself?” Participants in the promotion are encouraged to register at their local St John Centre to receive discount vouchers for First Aid & CPR training which they, in turn, can forward on to as many friends and family as possible, and continue to Pay It Forward. There is no limit to how many times the voucher can be Paid Forward during the promotion period. The goal is to reach individuals across Alberta who may not have been aware of the importance of First Aid & CPR training, and to have them learn skills so they may make a difference for a loved one in need., For each successful Pay It Forward voucher used the original participant will have their name entered into a draw for a weekend getaway to Anchor D Guiding & Outfitting in Black Diamond. The prize (valued at $750) entitles the winner to two nights accommodation in a log cabin nestled in the Rocky Mountains and a half-day ride for two, each day., To receive your Pay It Forward package, call St. John Ambulance today at 780-452-6161 or email edmonton@stjohn.ab.ca .
