The Leo Project
Started in honor of Caitlin O’Hara, The Leo Project is a community-based organization that provides supportive services, creative outlets, and opportunities not traditionally available to vulnerable youth and adults in Nanyuki, Kenya. Their model involves a Resource Center, a cohort of primary and secondary schools where the team provides daily on-site programs, community outreach and, most recently, The Caitlin O'Hara Community Health Clinic. The clinic was designed by Build Health International and is slated to open doors in April 2022.
