Fundacion Leon is a philanthropic institution that contributes to the creation of a more equitable and participatory Leonese society, through the implementation of projects focused on promoting human and social development in sectors of the population with greater vulnerability.
We were founded in 1999 by the initiative of a group of businessmen in Leon, who, worried about the accelerated growth of the city, and conscious of the problems generating in the vulnerable groups, decided to promote a development proposition to these needs in Leon, Guanajuato.

Offering tools for the people to accomplish personal and labor growth by means of workshops, work training, sports, culture and recreation. With the finality of offering a better life quality and social cohesion.

Each one of our activities aims to cover the different needs of the habitants of the community, giving those
