How the foundation is administered
The Fermanagh Trust, County Fermanagh's Community Foundation will administer The Fisher Foundation as an integral part of its work. The Trust was established in 1995 to promote community and voluntary endeavour. The Trustees Joanna McVey, Frank McManus, Jim Ledwith and Kathleen Richey oversee the Trust's work.
Since 1995 the Trust has supported over two hundred initiatives through financial and practical support.
The Fermanagh Trust aims to create and build funds, identify needs and provide a vehicle for donors. The Trust uses money made available through gifts from individuals, companies, foundations and charitable organisations. These gifts are used to establish funds that serve purposes as varied as the donors who created them.
