Founder of The Liza Maribel Foundation Inc.
The Liza Maribel Foundation started in 2014 and was finally founded in 2019 by Liza and her son Nico. Since 2019, our yearly programs have supported more than 1500 families across the Bay Area with the main focus on individuals from Alameda and Contra Costa Counties.
We have provided scholarships and grants to the youths, in support to their educational goals, and also to single parents that want to start a new career and needed the skill sets to achieve their goal. We provide grants to individuals (primarily women) struggling with serious life threatening illness, like cancer, to alleviate the costs of their medical bills. Most of all, we focus on supporting and uplifting individuals from underrepresented communities that have been marginalized by abuse/discrimination, health challenges, and other disempowering disabilities by providing a boost of inspiration through our coaching and training.
Liza cares deeply about others less fortunate because at some point in life she had to face the challenges of being a single parent and homeless while struggling with her own sets of health challenges. Her resiliency helped her developed a more compassionate way of living, and by helping others overcome some of their challenges, she has been able to grow into being a thoughtful and empathic leader.
