The STOP THE BLEED® campaign has a big goal – to train 200 Million people across the nation in the years ahead. To do that, training equipment is needed – lots of training equipment. Proper training equipment can be hard for some organizations to afford, which is why we’re announcing the STOP THE BLEED® Training Kit Grant program, funded by the Stop the Bleed Coalition. It’s designed to support schools, government agencies, non-profit, civic and faith-based organizations responsible for training their communities, who lack the funds to purchase training equipment directly. Beginning today, qualified organizations can apply for a grant here.
Grantees will be awarded a free STOP THE BLEED® Training Kit (a $1,000+ value) suitable for teaching the hands on portion of the American College of Surgeons STOP THE BLEED® course.
Grantees will be announced and notified on National Stop the Bleed Day (May 21, 2020) and the STOP THE BLEED® Training Kits will be delivered to grantees in June 2020.
Setting up a Bleeding Control Kit Drive is a fun way to for a community to rally together to support the important cause.
