Believe It Or Not

Check out the lower panel on this Ripley's Believe It Or Not comic...

Incredible, huh? How lucky that the delivery guy knew CPR!

But here at the Red Cross we don't want to just bank on luck. We want to educate 5 million people in Citizen CPR (aka "hands-only") before the end of 2011 so that there's a better chance your delivery guy (or neighbor, or friend, or hairdresser, etc.) will have the skills to help save your life.

It's not full CPR certification, but performing hands-only, Citizen CPR is better than doing nothing at all. And if more people are empowered to help save a life (without worrying about mouth-to-mouth contact), that's a good thing.
