Lisa Towry came to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation through her family’s connection to the Scotts. After going to graduate school and working as a school counselor in Baltimore, Lisa felt it was time to move back to the Philadelphia area. With her nephews attending the same school as the Scott children, it wasn’t long before Lisa became involved in the Foundation. She first became part of Team Alex when she ran in the 2005 Parkway Run and met Liz and Jay Scott. During that time, the Foundation was expanding rapidly and happened to be looking for someone to manage the school program and grant processes. With her previous experience in both finance and the school system, Lisa was a natural for the position.
