“What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.”

Founded in 2023, Legacy of Excellence Foundation (LEF) is a Christian, common-benefit, non-governmental organization (NGO) with the mission of creating better, generational outcomes by supporting the multi-dimensional development of youth in Rwanda and across the African Diaspora. The youngest continent in the world, Africa must be home to a vast array of youth-focused enrichment programs and initiatives that are led by competent organs if it is to thrive, long-term. Grounded by its core values of community, equity, excellence, and African heritage, LEF seeks to contribute profoundly in this way by rendering tangible, material support to projects that fall under its purview and umbrella.

*Note: LEF does not accept unsolicited proposals or requests for funding and is not currently set up to financially support projects outside of our subsidiary projects, featured below.
