John Freehafer Scholarship Fundraising Event

Join the Leadership Raleigh Alumni Association at the John Freehafer Scholarship Fundraising Event. This year's event will include beverages, appetizers, and a silent auction to help raise money for the scholarship fund. Proceeds from this year's event will help us to achieve our goal of permanently endowing scholarship assistance for the Leadership Raleigh program.

In 2007, the Leadership Raleigh Alumni Board voted to create the John Freehafer Scholarship Fund. This fund provides financial assistance to support small business, nonprofit, and minority participation in Leadership Raleigh.

John Freehafer was a graduate of Leadership Raleigh 17 and met his wife, Deb, during the program. He was the proud father of Grayson, an alumni of UNC, and a season ticket holder for the Carolina Hurricanes. John loved all sports and was a huge champion for local athletics. He led a purposeful life and was committed to many organizations, including the American Diabetes Association Leadership Council, Boys & Girls Club – Breakfast of Champions, Greater Raleigh Chamber of Commerce (chair of the Sports Council at the time of his death), Prison Match, and Hayes Barton Baptist Church.

Contributions to this fund will continue to enhance Leadership Raleigh's commitment to capture the diversity of the community through the program's participants.
