Here’s How it Works

LE•O embodies a unique investment opportunity to develop, support, and expand cross-cultural education for academically-inclined disadvantaged young students. Upon graduation from top-tier colleges/universities, these scholars will return to their home regions as leaders with vast international networks, prepared to advance culturally appropriate solutions to ending poverty and promoting peace and prosperity.

The most unique attribute of LE•O is the exclusive and inclusive assembly of its students from their many different regions into one program. By inclusion, they are raised up together, and will by this association be prepared to work together for the success of their communities. The prior experience and institutional memories of the executive staff, officers, and board members, gained through predecessor organizations, contribute greatly to the LE•O operational plan that focuses and multiplies the resources of partners around the world.
