Philanthropically, Ms. Slattery serves on the board of The LAM Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to finding better treatments and ultimately a cure for lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), a rare lung disease that affects women. Her service to The LAM Foundation included 2 full terms as Board Chair, as well as serving on both the Executive and Development Committees. She was instrumental in upgrading the Foundation’s technology infrastructure, and substantially raising the awareness and profile of The LAM Foundation within the rare disease community.
