Observe the lightAnd do what’s right
The Le’Nyce and LeeAnthony Fisher Foundation is committed to its mission of providing support and resources to grieving families and loved ones who have experienced a significant loss due to traffic fatalities.
It is estimated that 42,915 people died in car crashes in 2021; and the families impacted, understand just how precious and unpredictable life can be. As such, the foundation provides counseling and financial support. We also work to raise public awareness of best driving practices, through driver education/training, and legislative proposals.
It can feel impossible to pick up the pieces in the wake of unimaginable tragedy, but the Le’Nyce and LeeAnthony Fisher Foundation is here to make available support to those who need it, offer a compassionate shoulder for people to lean on and share their stories, process their grief, and find ways to continue to live out the legacy of their loved ones.
Join us in spreading the joy of giving on this special day dedicated to making a positive impact. Your support means the world to us and the communities we serve. Every donation, no matter the size, contributes to real change.
This Giving Tuesday, let’s come together to create a wave of generosity. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those who need it most. Your kindness has the power to transform lives and build a brighter future.

As we build our foundation, we look forward to impacting negative trends by sharing impacts and providing resources to promote awareness of safe driving practices and the importance of them. We want to review impact studies, as they relate to speed and locations, so that we can better partner with local authorities to improve on roadway safety.
