Marlboro First Aid Squad Fundraising For New Defibrillators

MARLBORO, NJ-- The Marlboro First Aid Squad has launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise money for new defibrillators.

The defibrillators are so old, replacement parts are no longer available to fix what breaks. In order to buy a new set, the first aid squad needs to raise $15,000.

"Our life saving defibrillators for use when people are in cardiac arrest are outdated and in need of replacement parts that are no longer available," Sam Mizrahi, the campaign organizer, said on GoFundMe, "I am hoping to raise about $15,000 to replace this aging group of defibrillators to make sure that we have enough working defibrillators in hand when the need arises in our community."

Operations are fully funded by donations and all EMS personnel are volunteers, so purchasing new defibrillators depends on public donations.
