LEAD Edu
LEAD Edu is a U.S.-based nonprofit dedicated to unlocking the leadership potential of underserved youth in Liberia and Morocco. In partnership with community-based LEAD Hub academies, we provide students with holistic education, sports training, and leadership development. Our programs equip young people with the skills, mindsets, and experiences they need to lead themselves, others, and their communities. Through this work, we’re expanding access to leadership development opportunities for youth who have historically been excluded, enabling a future led by ethical, empathetic, and entrepreneurial leaders.

We’re joining Catalyst Now because we believe in the power of education and sport to cultivate ethical, empathetic, and entrepreneurial leaders. With our experience supporting youth leadership in Liberia and Morocco, we aim to share insights and strategies showing how young people drive change. In turn, we look forward to learning from peers reimagining education and leadership, gaining ideas, partnerships, and perspectives to strengthen our work and amplify impact.
