Additionally, she has been the Executive Director for an arts in healthcare organization and went on from there to run a new nonprofit organization, DoMore4:Good that set up volunteer activities for high school students in urban areas (Cleveland, Los Angeles, Anaheim CA).
Leslie serves on the Board of Managers of Lincoln Hall Boys Haven and LH Foundation. She chairs the Program Committee and the Human Resources Committee and sits on the Development Committee. She is an Advisory Board member of Globetops, a nonprofit organization that enables people to actualize their dreams by giving technological tools to the poorest sections of society.
