High school student donates live-saving devices for Eagle Scout project

SECAUCUS – Boy Scout Isaac Williams, 17, donated two automated external defibrillators to the Secaucus Police Department after purchasing them with more than $1,500 he generated through fundraising events.
“I always had a passion of wanting to protect people and to defend the constitution,” said the Secaucus resident at a “Coffee with a Cop” event last year. For his Eagle Scout project he hosted a family movie and dinner night and participated in a health and safety event. The defibrillators, used in cases of cardiac arrest, cost about $760 each. They will be put into two new police cares being acquired by the town of Secaucus.
A senior at Secaucus High School, Williams hopes to pursue a career in law enforcement. He plans to attend the National Security Studies program at New Jersey City University next year.
