About Lion’s Heart - Teen Volunteers and Leaders

What is Lion’s Heart?
  • We are a non-profit organization founded in 2004 to provide a platform for teens who want to volunteer in their communities.
  • We place members in groups of twenty by grade level, gender, and local area. We do offer individual and family memberships for those who wish to be more independent or where it is difficult to find more members to form a group.
  • Members elect their group officers, lead their own meetings, and decide together how to serve the community. Members can also choose to volunteer on their own.
  • We strongly encourage members to serve at least 25 hours per year to receive a 25-hour badge. Group members are required to attend group meetings.
  • Tax-deductible member dues are: $179 for the first year, and $110 annually thereafter. We offer hardship discounts.
  • Why Should Teens Volunteer?
    Lion’s Heart members will:
  • Empathy: Members learn compassion and develop empathy for others by volunteering.
  • Leadership: members learn to lead and become empowered by stepping into leadership roles as they volunteer and lead group projects.
  • Courage: Members learn to step outside their comfort zones and challenge themselves to take on new experiences.
  • Humanity: Members build confidence in their ability to contribute thoughtfully to society and our future workforce.
  • Collaboration: members work as a team to support important causes, practicing collaboration and inclusivity.
  • How is Lion’s Heart Different?
  • We are not a fundraising organization! We are supported by member dues, grants, and business and personal donations.
  • We have a dedicated staff that cultivates age-appropriate volunteer opportunities in member communities, and the members choose how they want to give back!
  • From the moment our members join, they start creating their personal digital portfolio through their own member portal for volunteer hours by cause, leadership roles, and awards! This can be shared with potential employers, their schools where volunteering is required, and college applications through Parchment. See below for an example of a member portal and digital portfolio.
