WORKING TOGETHER

A Shared Purpose.
A Personal Commitment.

The work of the Lauren Marie LeVert Foundation is deeply personal. It is rooted in a family’s experience with schizophrenia and in a determination to create better possibilities for those affected by it.
 

Each member of the team contributes in a different way, but the purpose is shared: to move the Foundation forward in its effort to improve care, advance understanding, support research, and ultimately find a cure.

​

One family’s experience. One shared purpose. A mission to change the future.

FOUNDER & CEO

Michael LeVert

Michael LeVert founded the Lauren Marie LeVert Foundation to Cure Schizophrenia with a deeply personal commitment to its mission.
 

He brings more than 35 years of experience successfully managing and growing businesses. His CPA/MBA background provides the financial and organizational oversight needed to build the Foundation and move its work forward.
