Our History
The idea for the Alliance of Youth Leaders in the United States began in 2015. To bring this vision to life, Dr. John X. Wang and Ms. Lin Hu, with the support of a group of parents and high school students, founded the American Youth Leadership Foundation (AYLF) and the Alliance of Youth Leaders in the United States (AYLUS).
Its first few branches were created on July 14, 2015 in Fort Bend, Texas, and Houston, Texas with the goal of contributing to their society and helping others to become their best selves.
