The LEFF Welcomes Jessica!

We could not be happier that Jessica Orr has joined the LEFF Board!  Not only is Jessica a wonderful person who was close to both Lauren and Emily, but she has immense experience running non-profit foundations and she has already become an extremely valuable addition to the foundation!

Introducing the new Lauren & Emily Failla Foundation!

We are thrilled to introduce the new Lauren & Emily Failla Foundation!  By honoring both these very special women, we aim to more than double the contributions made to the community!

Emily and Lauren Failla Memorial Choir Festival

St Peter's Episcopal Church in Morristown is hosting a "Festival Evensong" on 2/23 at 3pm, which is a religious service, culminating a week-end of choral workshops with guest conductor, Bruce Neswick.   The choir festival is funded by the Emily and Lauren Choir fund at St. Peter's.   We love supporting anything that is done in memory of Emily and Lauren, and we encourage all to go for an afternoon of beautiful music!  We'll see you there!

More Baby Bags Delivered to the NICU!

We've supplied the Morristown Medical's NICU with more baby bags, packed at our event in April 2012!

Broadway at the Bickford RECAP

Frank and I are still buoyed by the incredible support and affection we received at the "Broadway at the Bickford" gala on Monday. Wow! We have the most generous friends, family, and colleagues imaginable. Thank you to those who travelled a great distance on "unpredictable" airlines, drove from throughout the metro area, and those who made time on a busy week night to attend the event celebrating our daughters' lives. Because of the hard work and giving spirit of so many, our Foundation goal was more than doubled! We are feeling very grateful and extremely blessed.

January Update

Make sure you save the date for a service project on May 9th!
