Helping To Save Lives: Fairfield Star Student

FAIRFIELD, CT— Star Students are found in classrooms, on concert and theater stages and at debate lecterns, and out in the community doing good things to make life better for all of us.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize Star Students, and we’re working to tell the stories of these outstanding kids to their neighbors.

This submission comes from Nancy, who nominated Andrew, a junior at Warde High School of Fairfield. Nancy is Andrew's mother.

Why do you believe the star local student should be recognized?

Andrew started a non-profit organization in 2022 called Fairfield AEDs. The organization was started to raise funds to put AEDs (automated external defibrillators) at town public beaches and parks. Currently, there are only AEDs available at beaches and parks when there is a lifeguard on duty or a team coach has a portable unit.
