Our Work is Driven by Our Organizational Values
At Lean On Me International, Inc., our organizational values serve as the bedrock of our mission. Acting with integrity, transparency in our actions and decisions, exceeding expectations, inspiring innovation, and investing in Isleños are the core principles that guide our work. These values ensure that our actions consistently contribute to positive change in the communities we serve.
Our Beginnings
Our journey began amidst the early months of the COVID-19 epidemic when we witnessed the hardships faced by the residents of Isla Mujeres, Mexico. Recognizing the urgent need for a crisis intervention team, we were moved to establish Lean On Me International, Inc. to provide support to those in need.
Incorporated in the State of Florida by July 2020, our organization has rapidly grown from its humble beginnings, expanding its reach from a few families to over 300 families seeking assistance over the past years. Your support has been instrumental in this journey, and we invite you to continue being a part of our efforts to extend a helping hand to those facing challenges. Together, we can create lasting change and support the communities that need it the most.
