Inspiring Adventure and Courage in Lafayette's Youth
At the Live Like Leo Foundation, we believe in fostering the spirit of adventure, courage, and curiosity in young hearts. Every child has a dream, whether mastering the piano or riding the ocean waves. We aim to turn these dreams into reality through monthly grants. These grants help kids explore new horizons and develop passions that enrich their lives and the community.
About the Grants
Each month, we award grants to local children who show a desire to live adventurously and learn courageously. Whether it's taking piano lessons, learning to surf, or any other pursuit that sparks their curiosity, we're here to support their journey. Our grants are more than just financial support; they are investments in the potential of our community's youth.
Why Participate?
Winning a Live Like Leo grant is about more than just money—it's about gaining the confidence to step out of your comfort zone, learn new skills, and embrace the qualities of adventurousness, courage, and curiosity. It's about living like Leo—our foundation's inspiration—who believed in seizing every moment with enthusiasm and a bold spirit.
