The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch and Jeffrey Zaslow is a New York Times best-selling book about Carnegie Mellon Professor Randy Pausch’s reflections on life’s lessons and the realization of dreams as he battles terminal pancreatic cancer. After deliberating on a marketing strategy that would best express the spirit of The Last Lecture, Director of Marketing at Sallim Publishing, Byung Joon Seo (서병준), approached the Beautiful Foundation with the idea of creating a fund that would both publicize The Last Lecture and spread the miracle of hope found in the book.

The Beautiful Foundation partnered with Sallim Publishing to create The Last Lecture Fund; proceeds from the fund go to providing customized orthotics for people with physical disabilities. Just as Randy Pausch’s strength and courage in the last days of his life inspired millions, the Last Lecture Fund hopes the customized orthotics enable people with disabilities to realize their individual potential.
