As mentioned, Time is the one and only thing that each one of us loses equally in our lifetime. Emergencies do not send invitations and sometimes mere arrival of an emergency can be catastrophic. Imagine impact to loved ones if the unthinkable occurs. This is the reason our motto is “Leave no man behind, but leave no man where you find him“. This motto extends to the immediate family as well. To prepare for this responsibility, F3 nation has setup an accelerate portal wherein one can choose to donate any amount either one time or recurring. Kindly follow this link to make a donation and help all the F3 men prepare everywhere. The need for this is now.
Brothers, As part of our commitment to safety, we need to be prepared for emergencies that may occur during any F3 event. To be prepared:
I like to ask folks NOT in Slack to get into our F3 Princeton Slack. If you don’t know how or was never invited to it, let me know or someone, so you can get invited. Below #2 will be format of how you’ll add your profile info.
If you’re in Slack / have Slack Profile, kindly updated as:
Full Name field: Given/Hospital Name Display Name field: Given/Hospital Name (F3 Name) Title field: Add your In Case of Emergency (ICE) Contact Name & Phone Number Phone Number field: Best Phone Number to contact you.
This is a MUST thing to complete for everyone’s safety. If having issues updating your Slack Profile and need help, pls let me know or someone. Thanks in advance! Peace!
