OUR STORY
The Lauren Scruggs Kennedy Foundation was founded by what has been called a “Divine intersection”. Lauren, Lisa, and Ashley not only met and became close friends, but also realized they had similar stories and an identical vision. All three women had been able to have their prostheses made to look completely real and exactly like their other limb by ARTech Laboratory in Midlothian, Texas. With the many changes in insurance costs and provisions, they also realized that most people no longer had access to custom silicone restorations which could make their prosthesis look real.
In 2015, Lauren, Lisa and Ashley were able to accomplish their vision for helping others obtain a “beautiful” prosthesis. Together, with the National Christian Foundation and ARTech Laboratory, they seek to provide funding for girls and women to receive cosmetic silicone coverings for their prostheses, with the hope that they will experience both physical and spiritual restoration and healing.
“It’s amazing how something so ‘small’
can be an integral part of feeling beautifully complete again”.
