Leo Clubs are a sponsored group of talented, resourceful, and energetic young men/women who are ready and able to face many challenges the world has to offer. They are leaders who shoulder resposibility, who has a heart to care and who are there to lend a hand.

Leo Clubs offer an experience in living. Throughout the world from Finland to Australia, from Japan to Puerto Rico, tens of thousands of Leos, through their dedication to humanitarian service, are enriching themselves with new insights, ideas and visions.

Leo Clubs provide an opportunity for personal growth, friendship, and human understanding. Instead of just wishing the world were a better place, Leos have the chance to make it better.

Today's international Leo club program began with a single club at Abington High School, Pennsylvania, USA, organized in 1957 by the Glenside Lions Club. Other Lions clubs soon began organizing youth service clubs and in 1967, Leo clubs were adopted as an official program of Lions Clubs International. The Leo program has grown to include over 112,000 Leos in over 115 countries.
