Lisa Landers Email and Phone Number

Lisa Landers, President of The Charlie Landers Foundation (CL7) has made it her life’s work to carry out her late son, Charlie Landers’ wishes to help strike out Ewing’s Sarcoma forever. Ewing’s Sarcoma, a rare pediatric cancer, affects the bones or nearby soft tissue affecting children and young adults with 350 cases reported annually in the U.S. Due to the rarity of Ewing’s Sarcoma among pediatric patients, big Pharma and the government do not allocate the necessary funds for developing life-saving treatments and therapies to defeat this aggressive form of cancer. However, for the families affected, it’s no longer a “rare“ disease – it is omnipresent. CL7 wants children in the fight of their lives to be the best equipped, and it is up to The Charlie Landers Foundation to create a more promising pathway for them.The mission of CL7 is to raise critical awareness and fund projects and clinical research that lead to treatment options which have high impact and high potential for cure. Equally important is the core goal to bring comfort and spread joy through CL7 Kits. "Charlie’s customized essentials kits" which are specially curated care packages for those newly diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma. This was deeply important to Charlie, to help other kids going through what he was going through. Lisa is committed to the longevity of The Charlie Landers Foundation (CL7) and advancing its mission. She is responsible for providing leadership, strategic direction as well as the overall vision for the development and achievement for the organization’s successful impact across the Ewing’s Sarcoma community.In partnership with the Board of Directors and Executive committee, Lisa maintains local community and national partnerships, develops fundraising strategies and oversees the overall aesthetic and ethos of her son’s vision. She relentlessly promotes CL7 visibility acting as its ambassador along with Charlie’s ground troops of friends, family and his medical team who make up his Foundation. An avid baseball player, Charlie was deeply entrenched in the baseball community in NJ which has helped to raise education around this disease. The goal is to use Charlie’s absolute love of baseball as a catalyst for further awareness and dialogue around Ewing’s Sarcoma nationally which ultimately drives better patient outcomes. Charlie’s strength, perseverance and positive attitude serve as the cornerstones for his Foundation and is rooted in Lisa’s resolve to help patients navigate a life altering illness with tenacity, courage and above all, hope.
