Description
The Leo House was founded under the auspices of the Saint Raphael Society in New York, in 1889 to assist immigrants from Germany in making the transition to the USA. Through the passage of a century, immigrants are now arriving at airports rather than at steamship piers. This changes our mission to assisting more travelers and persons accompanying the sick for treatment here. The Leo House is a not-for-profit organization adapting its role to reflect the changing needs of immigrants, to offer low cost Catholic housing to clergy and religious, persons visiting the sick, students and travelers.
