Young Team Mikey Member Making a Difference

A young member of Team Mikey is looking to make a difference in his community.

Daniel Kwon is starting up a First Aid club at his school, to help make students, teachers and staff feel just that much safer.

“Last year, my school had to call an ambulance three times in the span of three days because of injuries, ” Kwon said. “And that gave me the idea for the first aid club. I’m in a Scouts Canada program called MedVents; through that I met a bunch of people and we talked about starting up the First Aid clubs at our schools, which is what motivated me to try to get one started.  So far, only one of us has successfully started one. I’m still in the process of starting up the club. I’ve found a teacher sponsor, and now have to give the office a proposal so they can approve it.”

We would like to congratulate Daniel for taking the initiative to help make his school a safer place. Best of luck to all your future efforts, Daniel!
