We founded LAFRANCE PROJECT to match generous funders with great nonprofits and to access untapped philanthropic potential in Palm Beach County. We are huge fans of cause-based marketing and purpose-based giving. We are here to help you identify the causes that speak to YOUR heart and fund best-in-class nonprofits in those areas. Lisa LaFrance challenges outdated practices in the nonprofit sector, advocating for collaboration, transparency, efficiency, and deeper donor engagement. She became a member of the giving circle Impact the Palm Beaches in 2019 and immediately joined (and later led) the Grant Review Committee. She learned a tremendous amount about the local nonprofit sector and traditional, institutional style grant-making. Lisa led the organization in the 2023-2024 season, contributing to growth from 149 members in 2019 to 396 members in her year as President. Prior to moving to Palm Beach in 2014, Lisa spent more than 20 years as an investment professional, helping to launch Bogle Investment Management, a quantitative hedge fund firm, in 1999. Her investment and for-profit experience inform her perspective on nonprofit sector potential.
