About Our Inspiration
Lauren Rose Albert
Lauren Rose grew up in Woodmere, New York and Cherry Hill, New Jersey 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.

About Our Founder
Susan Rose
On February 18, 1999, Susan Rose got the phone call every parent fears. The oldest of her four daughters, 40-year-old Lauren, had been killed in a car accident while vacationing in Morocco, leaving behind her husband and three children. Mourning the loss immobilized Rose and forced her to retire from her job as a state employee. She calls what happened next “a wonderful effort by family and friends to help me work through my grief.” Given Lauren’s penchant for helping others, they suggested Rose start a charity in Lauren’s name.
