Mission & Model
LEAD Edu is on a mission to establish, support, and grow transformative programs that deliver high-quality education, sports training, and leadership development to children across the globe.
We offer three programs, each focused on supporting and cultivating young leadership. Our programs currently serve students in the U.S., Liberia, and Morocco, with an emphasis on children from marginalized backgrounds.
Our Programs
