The reality

Medical emergencies don't wait for help to arrive.

Cardiac arrests, road accidents, drowning and workplace injuries happen in homes, schools and sporting venues — where the first person on the scene is a family member, teacher, coach or bystander. Yet access to first aid and CPR training remains limited across Cambodia.

The actions taken in the first few minutes decide whether a person lives, dies, or suffers permanent disability. A trained bystander can be the difference between tragedy and survival.

10%

Survival from sudden cardiac arrest falls by roughly 10% for every minute without CPR. Together, we can change that — one trained responder at a time.

The impact

One campaign. Two lasting outcomes.

More than a fundraiser — a national movement that creates immediate impact and a self-sustaining legacy.

Pillar 1 · Donate

Equip five institutions to save lives

Fund and deliver certified first aid & Basic Life Support training materials — CPR manikins, AED trainers, first aid and STOP THE BLEED kits — to five key institutions simultaneously, expanding lifesaving education nationwide.

Pillar 2 · Launch AHA

Build an internationally-recognised pathway

Launch Cambodia's first American Heart Association certification programme — globally respected credentials that sit alongside national qualifications and open new pathways for professionals, at campaign-funded introductory pricing.

Where every dollar goes

Five recipients. One coordinated national rollout.

100% of funds procure and deliver certified training materials and AHA programme support. FFS Cambodia, an accredited medical equipment distributor, manages procurement and delivery on behalf of the campaign.

School first aid

Ministry of Education — 20 pilot schools

The pathway

The AHA Certification Programme

The American Heart Association is the world's leading authority on cardiovascular care — recognised in 100+ countries and accepted by WHO, UNICEF, MSF and Red Cross International. Cambodian certificates aren't recognised internationally; AHA changes that.

Year 1
01

Foundation

Campaign-funded introductory pricing makes access affordable for all five institutions. A facilitation fee establishes the AHA Training Centre Cambodia. Target: 33+ instructors & 280+ providers certified.

Year 2
02

Growth

Courses transition to market pricing; the Training Centre runs independently. Surplus funds free courses for Red Cross volunteers, materials replenishment and school-programme expansion.

Year 3+
03

Institutionalisation

A permanent, self-sustaining institution — advocating AHA as a clinical & school-curriculum standard and positioning Cambodia as the AHA regional training hub for the Lower Mekong.
