William earned both the Ad Altare Dei and Pope Pius XII religious awards and also serves as troop chaplain. He is a Boy Scout representative for the Mahoning County Junior Fair Board, where he was recently a finalist for Outstanding Youth.

For his Eagle Scout service project, William enhanced a meditation garden at St. Luke Church, where he is a member. He built a trellis, added mulch, flower beds and a new statue of the Immaculate Conception.
