Leadership Lee County Class Renovates Oasis Youth Shelter Courtyard, Raising More Than $23K for At-Risk Youth

On March 26th, 2026, the Oasis Youth Shelter hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the newly renovated courtyard on their campus. The Leadership Lee County Class of 2024-25 raised over $23,000 in monetary and in-kind donations and committed countless hours of labor to create an inviting space for the youths in residence to enjoy. The support of area businesses was integral to the success of the project.

THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!
