The Flawless Foundation creates and supports programs that accomplish our mission of seeing, discovering and nurturing the perfection in every child.
Our philosophy of giving is inspired from a place of gratitude and passion for children. We are creative, hands-on and proactive in our vision to enrich the lives of children who courageously face challenges of neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders on a daily basis.
Why Flawless? Our family friend, Regena Thomashauer gave Ellis the nickname “Flawless” from a song that we all love by The Ones.

Flawless
The simple lyrics are inspiring and always get us dancing as a family. It has become one of Ellis’s favorite songs, and the perfect theme for our work. When it came to choosing a name for our foundation, our dear friend, Lori, a Flawless board member, immediately said, “Of course, the name must be ‘Flawless,’” and the rest is history.
Flawless started when the Francolini/Lee family moved to Portland, Oregon, from New York City. They were struck by the vast differences in the resources for educational and healthcare programs in the two cities. As they learned more about the care and education of children with special needs, they decided to invest and make an impact!
Flawless has grown at a rapid pace and is a nationwide foundation serving children all over the U.S.
