International Leo Project 
In April 2005, the Lions International Board of Directors approved Spotlight on Children as the International Service Project for Leo clubs.
Leo clubs are encouraged to develop a project for children in adverse circumstances. An ideal day to implement a Spotlight on Children project is December 5, International Leo Day.
To view the Spotlight on Children brochure, click here.
Project examples include:
- providing clothing for needy children
- collecting books for students
- repairing a playground
- visiting children in the hospital
- volunteering during a Special Olympics tournament
- raising funds for UNICEF (United Nations Children's Fund).
Leo clubs that complete a Spotlight on Children project can apply for a banner patch award. Individual Leos who provide a high level of support for a Spotlight on Children project can receive a Certificate of Recognition. Click here for the banner patch award application.
