Leadership Raleigh 39 - Project Team 2

“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new one.” Congratulations on completing your Leadership Raleigh program. You are forever a member of our Leadership Raleigh Alumni Association. We hope you had a fantastic year despite these challenging times. This year, we want to say thank you for your tenacity and dedication to the program. One unique aspect of Leadership Raleigh is the project team element. Each participant is placed in a project team based on his or her background and experience.

Today, we are highlighting our Leadership Raleigh 39, Project Team 2. This group collaborated with STOP THE BLEED, an organization dedicated to training individuals to be the true first-responder in the case of severe trauma and bleeding. Project Team 2 raised awareness around an important, life-saving skill – a skill from which everyone in the community can benefit. Accidents happen and they can happen to anyone, anywhere – playground incidents, sports practice, car accidents, yardwork mishaps, kitchen slips, natural disasters, or mass shootings. The more bystanders trained in how to respond in a time of crisis, the safer our communities will be.
