As First Lady of Ecuador, León was president of the National Children's Trust (INNFA since 1980). She focused on institutionalizing it, giving it legal status and drawing up a complete inventory of assets it owned created by Corina del Parral in 1960. In this capacity, she enjoyed the support of the Comptroller General.[2]
Early in 1973, León was in charge of the evacuation and treatment of victims of a flood in Babahoyo, where she suffered a septicemia that required treatment at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Washington D.C.[2]
