Lauren Rose Albert Foundation
About Lauren

Lauren grew up in Woodmere, NY and Cherry Hill, NJ with her parents, Susan and Stuart, and her younger sisters Jackie, Amy and Elizabeth. She was the wife of Dr. Todd Albert and the mother of Stuart, Elliot and Emily.

On February 18, 1999 Lauren was a passenger in a vehicle that tumbled down a mountainside in Morocco, killing her. She was only 40.

Lauren was truly, a ray of sunshine. Full of laughter, love and light, Lauren's smile would warm and comfort all who were touched by her radiance, her gentleness and her compassion.

She believed in helping others and was an activist for causes in which she believed and a volunteer to help others less fortunate than herself.

For her parents, sisters, friends and colleagues - and for her own family - Lauren was an inspiration. She had integrity, self-discipline and great strength of character; she always spoke up for what she felt was right. And she fought for her beliefs with determination and dignity.

These are the qualities that inspire the Lauren Rose Albert Foundation.
