NON-PROFIT
LOVE FOR LEWISTON JESSICA JANZEN OLSTAD Jessica Janzen Olstad is the CoFounder of the Love for Lewiston Foundation. The LFL Foundation was established in May 2017, to honour her son Lewiston who passed away 3 days shy of his 6 month birthday, from a rare genetic disease called SMA (Spinal Muscular Atrophy). In a year and a half, they have raised over $350,000 for Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation, and SMA research and families. They not only focus on raising money, finding a cure, but also advocating and supporting SMA families, and encouraging others to choose movement, bring joy and spread love. Jessica has designed a clothing line produced locally to continue awareness for SMA. She blogs, teaches fitness and pursues the things that make her heart soar. She loves spending time with family and friends, a good cup of coffee, working out and soaking up the sunshine by the water, always with the daily focus to “run towards the roar”!
