Be part of the cure.
Because Isa’s family underwrites operations, 100% of your gift flows directly to research, family care, and advocacy, and you can choose where.
“We do not take from children. We only give.”
This single covenant governs every decision the Foundation makes, in research, in policy, and in how we raise and spend every dollar.

How your gift works
Family-funded overhead.
The Lazzara family personally covers the Isa Elaine Foundation’s operating and administrative costs, including staff, legal, and core infrastructure. Donor funds can therefore be directed entirely into the three program pillars: research, family care, and advocacy.
If you have a specific institution or project in mind, you can indicate it when you give, or speak with us directly about larger gifts.
