HOMETOWN HEROES: Boynton Beach man raising awareness about the need for CPR training

Fast forward to July 2019 Kosiec got his certification to teach CPR classes and started his nonprofit called Every Second Counts CPR.

The nonprofit offers CPR classes to organizations and people of all ages. His goal is to make sure there are more people out there like Sarah who have the training to save lives. He also wants to be a voice for others who weren’t as fortunate as him.

“That person could be your father, your mother, your brother, your sister and so we have to get that education out there that it’s ok to help that person and you’re not going to hurt them because you can’t hurt somebody who died on the floor,” Kosiec said.

It’s a cause he’s taken all the way to the state capital. Kosiec is hoping to pass a bill that would make it mandatory for high school students to learn CPR before they graduate. It would also require heart screenings for student athletes.
