Honoring Our Dear Friend, Ali Lasell
Ali Van Vooren Lasell - beloved and loving mom, wife, daughter, sister, aunt, niece, friend, and alumni board member of Jeffo Prosperity Partners – was one-of-a-kind! Everyone who knew her was taken by her positive attitude, sense of humor, and dedication and desire to help others.
Ali's legacy will live on in each of us as we keep her memory close to our hearts, find joy in everyday life, and work together to improve our community.
Moving from poverty to prosperity - one child, one family at a time.
