BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Pamela McClellan
President
A native Staten Islander, Pam currently resides in South River, New Jersey with her wife Susan and fur babies, Maxie Marie and Jack James. Fundraising and giving has always been a passion and way of life for Pam, something which feels natural to her. So, in October of 2017, after suffering the devastating loss of one of her nearest and dearest friends, Lisa Arbus, Pam immediately knew she was about to begin the journey to help the Staten Island community while keeping her girl “Leela’s” memory alive, working closely with a team of Lisa’s family and friends to form the non-profit Live Like Lisa Foundation.
Harry Arbus

Harry Arbus was born and raised in Paterson, New Jersey. He is the loving father to four beautiful children, Hailey, Michaela, Alyssa, Robert and one fur child, Tobias. He is also the proud grandpa of Alyson and Lisa Marie. Harry claims that his most noteworthy life accomplishment is his marriage to Lisa Arbus.
Alyssa Bruno

In her spare time Alyssa enjoys spending time with her family and coaching at New Dorp High School.
