NPOV - Neutral Point of View
Absolutelyang - In response to the proposal to delete, the article needs to use much more neutral language. As an example, here are some paragraphs of yours:

Lion’s Heart is a teen-based volunteer program headquartered in California. The organization has several chapters in other states, such as Colorado, Georgia, New York, Wisconsin, Texas, and Connecticut, but is growing all the time. It was founded in 2004 as a non-profit, non-fundraising group designed to “serve the community in meaningful and fun ways.”

Since it was founded by Terry Corwin, Lion’s Heart has enrolled approximately 3,500 Members as of 2014. The organization has grown steadily and offers teenagers the opportunity to do community service without fundraising or other requirements. The organization has enrolled teens who are in 6th through 12th grades. As of July 2014, the members have volunteered over 250,000 hours of community service since the organization was founded ten year prior.

Lion’s Heart has become noted in California due to their presence among volunteer groups.[1] Often, families move to a different area and desire to start a new chapter in their new location.

And here is what I would substitute as more neutral:

Lion’s Heart is a teen-based volunteer program headquartered in California. The organization has several chapters in other states, such as Colorado, Georgia, New York, Wisconsin, Texas, and Connecticut. It was founded in 2004 as a non-profit, non-fundraising group designed to “serve the community in meaningful and fun ways.” (As this is a quote, it needs a citation)

As of 2014, Lion’s Heart has approximately 3,500 members. The organization offers teenagers the opportunity to do community service without fundraising or other requirements. The members are teens who are in 6th through 12th grades. As of July 2014, the members have volunteered over 250,000 hours of community service since its inception. (This is a fact - it needs a citation)

Lion’s Heart has become noted in California due to their presence among volunteer groups.[1] Often, families move to a different area and desire to start a new chapter in their new location. (This definitely needs a citation! You have to find an article in a magazine or newspaper that says this.) LaMona (talk) 01:10, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
