THANK YOU, NYC!!!!!! ❤️
To everyone who participated in our First Annual Each One Teach One: How to Save a Life event, we want to say THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts.
This was more than an event. It was a day of learning, connection, preparedness, and community. Together, we created a space where people could learn lifesaving skills, ask questions, share experiences, and walk away better prepared to respond when seconds matter.
We are incredibly grateful to our amazing event partners and community supporters, including Assemblymember Al Taylor, Rho Epsilon Sigma NYC, NYC Parks & Recreation, Denny Farrell Riverbank State Park, Senator Cordell Cleare, and Good Rhythm CPR and Awilda Montes** for helping bring this event to life.
A very special thank you to the FDNY Harlem Paramedics for sharing their expertise and helping our community better understand anaphylaxis, emergency response, and the importance of acting quickly when seconds matter.
We also want to recognize and thank our incredible sponsors and in-kind supporters: Kaléo Pharma, Aquestive Therapeutics, DBV Technologies, ARS Pharmaceuticals, Inc., NIMA Partners, Abe’s Vegan Muffins, MedicAlert Foundation, CPR Wrap, WellToo, ARK, PracMedic Bags – Know the Difference, Darin Gilstrap, ScM and InnerCityMD, and PolicyPantry. Your generosity and support helped make this event possible.
We are also grateful to the American Red Cross, American Heart Association, Allergy Force, and Gayle Rigione for supporting the mission and helping us continue to bring education, awareness, and preparedness into our communities.
And to every volunteer, instructor, first responder, childcare provider, educator, community member, family, and attendee who showed up, participated, asked questions, learned something new, and helped make this day so meaningful, THANK YOU. Even with the rain, you showed up for your community, and that means more to us than words can express.
Our mission has always been simple: Each One Teach One. When one person learns, they can teach another. When more people are prepared, more lives can potentially be protected.
We are already preparing for our Second Annual Each One Teach One: How to Save a Life event next year, and we are excited to build on what we started together while continuing to create a community where preparedness is not optional.
Stay tuned for what’s coming next! ❤️
If you or your organization would like to support or sponsor next year’s event, we would love to hear from you at [email protected]
Thank you for standing with us, believing in the mission, and helping us turn **awareness into action.
One person learns. One person teaches. Together, we can help save a life.
With gratitude,
Elijah-Alavi Foundation
