Dear Leos and Lions: On December 5, 1957, Lions Jim Graver and William Ernst created the world’s first Leo club in Pennsylvania, USA. These Lions recognized the Power of We. They understood that young people possess unbound potential to lead positive change. They believed that when we come together, the world’s problems become smaller. When Lions and Leos serve together, the impossible becomes possible. Over the past 60 years, the Leo movement has continued to grow into a network of over 7,000 clubs in 145 countries. Leos continue to build upon our association’s tradition of service to meet emerging global needs. I have witnessed the commitment and perseverance of Leos both in-person and also through the International Leo Day Video Contest. Leos from 25 countries shared why they serve and how they have taken action in their communities. Please join me in congratulating the winners of the contest: 3rd Place: Olongapo City Leo Club (Philippines) 2nd Place: Juhu Leo Club (India) 1st Place: Medan Stallion Leo Club (Indonesia) Happy 60th Anniversary to all Leos! I applaud your continued engagement and efforts to tackle our world’s greatest challenges. Sincerely, Dr. Naresh Aggarwal Your International President
