Leaders of the Free World
Leaders of the Free World(LFW) is an international experience and leadership development program for young Black men. Our mission is to develop dynamic leaders who are globally-minded, self-aware, and service-driven.

The LFW program is a national program which provides international exposure to young men of color while expanding each participant's leadership capacity. The LFW curriculum promotes consciousness and self-awareness while targeting social and psychological barriers to success. LFW’s goal is to create a network of leaders whose development impacts their own lives and their communities; grooming the next generation of changemakers, entrepreneurs, and mentors.
