 “Our group at The Kurt Caselli Foundation continues to strive to serve our community the best we can and to promote safety. The Kurt Caselli Riders 1st Responders is the latest initiative that will be providing courses in CPR/First Aid certification and training for participants in off-road racing. We rolled this out in December 2017 with a group of off-road Champions, team managers and media with huge success and look forward to bringing this Kurt Caselli Foundation-funded event to many more locations across the U.S.” — Donny Emler Jr, President of the Kurt Caselli Foundation

This initiative is made possible with your donations and the support from our sponsors.

#Riders1stResponders Testimonials:

 "I recently experienced a traumatic situation in which my youngest child was choking. I didn't know what to do but my wife jumped right in, performed the heimlich and quickly took control of what could have been a very bad situation. This traumatic event prompted the need to learn some basic CPR and First-aid. The next day I got an e-mail from the Kurt Caselli Foundation on their CPR Certification Class. Without hesitation I signed up and I am so happy I did. The information I learned in the class is absolutely priceless. I am now very confident in not only keeping my family safe but keeping my friends safe as well. Whether we are out in the desert on our dirt bikes, mountain biking some local trails or attending the kids sporting events I am confident and find peace in knowing if an emergency presents itself I have the know how to totally handle it" —Jon Lague
