Lisa Leask
Board Member
Lisa is a former US Naval Officer and the co-founder of several successful businesses in the Charleston, SC, area. She is also a mother to three daughters, one of whom has special needs. Lisa’s oldest daughter was diagnosed at age three in 1998 with autism and, at that time, Lisa was told to love her daughter as long as she could before her daughter would have to be put in an institution. That was not an acceptable answer for Lisa and her family, and they have fought for opportunities not only for their daughter, but for other exceptional individuals with special needs ever since. With that in mind, in 2019 Lisa founded Five Fish Foundation, a non-profit that awards scholarships to families with individuals with an intellectual disability for therapeutic services, programs, and products that insurance doesn’t cover and that they may otherwise not receive.
