Leading Ladies of Legacy

Leading Ladies of Legacy produces young women who have strong academic backgrounds, understand and build resilience, fight and overcome poverty, exude self-worth and confidence, give back to the community and display leadership. Through membership meetings, programs, events and community service, this organization will identify and challenge young women to develop compassion, confidence and a commitment to service and leadership within their communities.

Leading Ladies of Legacy programs are girls-only, safe space gatherings that meet once weekly after school, during school and/or on Saturdays. A typical group serves 20-25 girls. Participants build leadership skills and character traits such as honesty, personal accountability, learning to listen to the viewpoints of others, clear communication, critical thinking about life and its choices and sound decision making. Through goal setting, the girls work on reaching tangible goals.
