Raymond Bell is working with HSEMA to complete his Eagle Scout Leadership Service Project by distributing emergency go kits to seniors and outreach materials to neighborhoods in his community, Ward 5.
Mr. Bell will spend his summer training his troop members on emergency preparedness and leading them as they prepare residents, particularly seniors for natural or man-made emergencies.
HSEMA is excited to have Mr. Bell, and young leaders like him, involved in such an important mission.

This is a wonderful service project and one that could easily be replicated for other aspiring Eagle Scouts. How did Mr. Bell assemble the kits--were the supplies donated? Did he fundraise for them? That would be interesting to know. Also, what troop is he in?
But more important, what a way to live and model the Boy Scout Motto: Be Prepared.
HSEMA provided Mr. Bell with the emergency go kits. Our agency typically distributes the go kits to home-bound seniors in the District. Mr. Bell, who is a part of Troop 319, has been working with our Community Outreach Coordinator who provided him with 200 kits to distribute to seniors.
