LEAD Edu (LEAD) is a US-based nonprofit organization that is building a generation of ethical, empathetic, and entrepreneurial global leaders. We have two core programs: LEAD Hubs and LEAD Learning. LEAD Hubs provide low-income, high-potential youth with a transformative education, pairing elite sport and academic training with leadership
coursework and pathways to post-secondary education and career opportunities. At present, we support two LEAD Hubs in Liberia and Morocco that educate, train, and feed 240 boys and girls. Through LEAD Learning, we deliver leadership content to primary and secondary students across the world. To date, LEAD Learning has impacted more than 135,000 children in Liberia, Morocco, and Bangladesh. LEAD Edu is currently supporting the growth of its Liberian and Moroccan Hubs, revamping LEAD Learning’s curriculum
and program strategy, and exploring opportunities for expansion into new markets for both programs. By 2035, we will have thousands of leaders changing policies and systems in their positions of political, economic, and social power.LEAD Edu seeks a Development and Partnerships Manager who will thrive at a dynamic, international nonprofit.
