On the evening of October 28, 2023, a momentous event unfolded in the realm of Leoism, transcending geographical boundaries and uniting individuals from across the globe. The Leo Club of University of Colombo, Sri Lanka, and the Platinum Leo Club in Nigeria came together to introduce 'Project LeoLink,' an extraordinary journey of sharing, connecting, and learning. As the clock struck 8 PM in Sri Lanka, the Twitter Space and Facebook Live platforms burst into life, extending a warm welcome to participants from both nations.

This event, led by resource persons Leo Lion Bhanuka Premarathna and Lion Adebimpe Balogun MJF NLCF, was an electrifying experience that underscored Leoism's capacity to foster global unity. Leo Lion Bhanuka Premarathna's wisdom and Lion Adebimpe Balogun's wealth of experience added depth to the virtual gathering, setting the stage for an unforgettable evening.

The event's timing, synchronizing the clocks of Sri Lanka and Nigeria, was an impressive achievement. When it struck 8 PM in Sri Lanka, it coincided with 3:30 PM in Nigeria, highlighting the unity and commitment of Leos worldwide.

The primary objective was to enhance awareness of Leoism, encourage cross-cultural understanding, and exchange valuable insights on social service contributions.

The event provided a platform for participants to engage in thought-provoking discussions and share their Leoism experiences. It represented a two-way exchange of knowledge, enriching the understanding of social service and community engagement practices in diverse contexts.

'Project LeoLink' transcended being just an event; it served as a bridge that crossed geographical boundaries, fostering deep connections and paving the way for future collaborations. It embodied the spirit of Leoism, where young individuals came together to create a positive impact on society.

As the event drew to a close, participants left with a sense of empowerment and a renewed commitment to the principles of Leoism. 'Project LeoLink' will be remembered as an inspiring journey that united Leo Clubs and enthusiasts worldwide, unlocking limitless possibilities for future endeavors.
