In 1968, newly formed Leo clubs began sending their requests for club certification to International Headquarters. On this date, the world's original Leo club was formally recognized as a part of the international Leo program. Leo John Hebert of Baederwood, Pennsylvania, served as president of the Abington High School Leo Club. Soon, Lions all over the world were learning more about the new Leo Club Program. Today, the Leo Club Program is stronger than ever.
Community service remains the cornerstone of the program.
