Today we are highlighting our Leadership Raleigh 40, Project Team 2. This group collaborated with Tables for Hope, along with Boy Scouts of America and The Green Chair Project. Project Team 2 helped folks feel a sense of belonging and "home". By working with students in a boy scout troop associated with the Muslim American Society, we were able to create that sense of "home" for six families in the area by building (from scratch!) six dining room tables to be donated to The Green Chair Project. It is our hope that our goal was realized not only by the people who received those tables, but also by the students and troop leaders who worked together to build them.
Congratulations Project Team 2 for your outstanding work and completion of Leadership Raleigh!
Applications are now available for our next Leadership Raleigh class here. Please note that these are due back to Des Burton by 5 p.m. on Aug. 14.
