heart to heart: cpr for singles

save a life, meet your match.

what if the person next to you needed saving? would you know what to do?

we're teaming up with the compress and shock foundation for a singles night that could literally save a life. they're a nonprofit dedicated to bringing equitable cpr and aed education to all communities, and they're bringing the training to us.

this isn't your average singles event. it's not your average cpr class. it's both.

how it works

first, an icebreaker. we'll ask you a simple question: "what would you do in an emergency?" then you'll go stand by your answer. "i'd stay calm." "i'd panic but figure it out." "i'd yell for someone more experienced." just like that, you've found your first group.

then you'll rotate partners every few minutes, speed dating style. you'll practice chest compressions, learn how to use an aed, and work through real life scenarios on adult, child, and infant mannequins. conversation prompts and partner activities keep things moving. nothing bonds people faster than saving a fake life side by side.

for someone you love

at the start of the night, we'll ask you to write down who you'd want to save. a parent. a friend. a niece. that's your why.

you'll learn why cpr matters, how common cardiac arrest really is, and what to do when it happens. you'll leave with real skills that could make the difference for someone you love.

and at the end, we'll bring it back. you came here thinking about someone you'd want to save. maybe you met someone worth keeping around too.

good to know

this is not a certification course. but here's the thing: you don't need a certification to save a life. you need the knowledge, the confidence, and the willingness to act. that's exactly what you'll walk away with, plus a certificate of completion from the compress and shock foundation.

details

no experience needed. just show up ready to learn something real alongside someone new. this event is designed for straight singles. we're working on events for other communities too, so stay tuned.
