Make a difference – sponsor a LEO club!

As the youngest members of Lions Clubs International, LEOs embody the best qualities of our incredible organization. They are devoted young people who realize the power of action. Together, LEO s and Lions form a powerful partnership — one of mutual respect where Lions learn from the innovative insights of LEOs, and where LEO s gain access to the proven strategies of those who’ve successfully served the world for decades.
