fundraising initiatives for scouting organizations, and advances international humanitarian outreach, including programs benefiting orphans in Uganda. His work reflects a belief that education, service, and shared cultural experiences are essential to building resilient and compassionate communities.
Born in Sweden and raised in Hungary, Mr. Lenard is a first-generation American who speaks English, Hungarian, and Swedish.

Professionally, Mr. Lenard leads a family-run real estate, construction, and consulting office serving Central Florida, where his work focuses on collaboration, integrity, and hands-on service.
