The early childhood committee of the Club has begun the 2016-2017 Leoistic year by fulfilling its purpose in serving the less fortunate in communities around Dominica.

The part-scholarship was awarded based on lack of financial ability by the parent/ward. The scholarship included items such as school bags , lunch bags and stationery items. Additionally, there will be some payment of school fees.

The members of the Leo club of Dominica extends best wishes to the recipients of the part- scholarship program.

Let us continue to play our part in building education in the lives of our children. Remember the children are our future.
