Disgraced cycling champion Lance Armstrong has officially been erased from the charity he helped found in 1997. The Lance Armstrong Foundation filed paperwork to change its name to the Livestrong Foundation. Spokeswoman Katherine McLane said yesterday (quote) “For most of its life, the organization has been known as the Livestrong Foundation, but making that change official is necessary and appropriate during a time of change for the organization.”
In recent weeks, Armstrong has been stripped of most of his titles and his corporate sponsors have fled. Last month, he stepped down as the Livestrong Chairman of the Board, and resigned from the Board of Directors.
