First Response Force

Every ₹200 can change a life. Sponsor a child, a tree, a menstrual kit, or a CPR training session. 

Project Overview

Emergencies can strike anytime—on the road, at school, at home, or in the workplace. Sadly, thousands of lives are lost each year in India due to the lack of immediate first aid or basic life-saving support.

To bridge this critical gap, Safe Hands Rehabilitation Society is launching “First Response Force”, a nationwide initiative to train and empower youth, teachers, workers, and local citizens as Certified First Responders.

The program equips participants with hands-on skills in CPR, First Aid, trauma response, and fire safety, enabling them to act effectively during emergencies—until professional help arrives.

Objectives

  • Build a trained network of 10,000+ first responders annually
  • Increase life-saving awareness and readiness across schools, colleges, factories, and communities
  • Establish First Responder Clubs in educational and residential institutions
  • Support and integrate with NDMA, NDRF, 108/112, Red Cross, and civil hospitals
  • Promote a culture of courage, preparedness, and responsibility

Target Beneficiaries

  • Students (schools, colleges, universities)
  • Teachers, professors, and staff
  • Industrial workers, security guards, drivers, domestic staff
  • Rural health workers, ASHA and Anganwadi workers
  • RWAs, youth clubs, volunteers, and general community members
