Impact positive change

Unlock the leader inside you

Make lifelong friends

Do you feel “stuck in a box” or written off as “just a kid”?

When you’re around the same people every day, you and your ideas can become limited and contained. You can walk around with a label that doesn’t reflect who you truly are. You don’t need to stay stuck in this box. OASL is a place where you will find friends who will build you up and inspire you to be an incredible leader.
