THINK Together’s Early Literacy Program partners with Red Cross to teach CPR and first-aid


AmeriCorps volunteers demonstrate first-aid techniques


On Saturday April 14, THINK Together’s Early Literacy Program partnered with the Orange County Red-Cross and hosted a community initiative certifying 83 people in CPR and first-aid.

Amy Estey, AmeriCorps member in Preparedness and Community Education and Michelle Catanzano, lead instructor of volunteers, led the training.



Five additional AmeriCorps members assisted with the training by leading small group instruction along with THINK Together AmeriCorps members providing translation.

Certifying our community residents in CPR and first-aid empowers and provides confidence to our community members in life-saving techniques.

The first session lasted from 8:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. and the second session went from 1:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.

THINK Together is serious about helping kids achieve!

THINK Together is making a difference in the lives of more than 100,000 California students. The non-profit organization's trained staff, dedicated volunteers and generous donors are providing extended learning time programs (after-school, summer learning, small group tutoring, early literacy, etc.) and resources to help these kids, their families and their communities achieve. Our programs, generally free for at-risk students and low-income families, are predominately available at public school sites across Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego and now Sacramento Counties.
