The Leap Day Foundation was established in the Republic of Cyprus by 5 friends: Frixos Savvides, Chris Georghiades, Mehran Eftekhar, Christos Christodoulou and Mufid Sukkar, who resolved to stage a variety of activities encouraging people to give some of their effort, time or influence to raise money for charitable funds, without necessarily focusing on a specific cause. Over the past period, a number of small and large activities were organized and run by the founding members together with an army of volunteers with whom the idea resonated strongly.

Although it takes its name from Leap years, the foundation resolved to remain active every year in order to encourage individuals and organizations to think of others and give their time/effort/influence to raise money for the deserving causes. Become an active LDF supporter as every little help counts.
