The Legacy Roots
The Leo Club Program is the official youth development initiative of Lions Clubs International, founded on December 5, 1957, at Abington High School in Pennsylvania, USA. Established by Lion Jim Graver, a baseball coach and member of the Glenside Lions Club, the program was created to provide young people with opportunities to develop leadership skills while serving their communities. From its inception, the Leo movement has been guided by the principles of Leadership, Experience, and Opportunity, which continue to define the organization today. In 1967, the Leo Club Program was officially adopted as a youth program of Lions Clubs International and has since grown into a global network spanning more than 140 countries, empowering millions of young leaders worldwide.
