If you’ve been seeing these posts and wondering how to be part of FCCF: A few easy ways: • connect us with organizations we should know • tell us what’s happening in your area • volunteer with us • help spread the word. We’re building this step by step, and there’s room for anyone who wants to help.

Meet Becky Sullivan

Becky Sullivan is a Fayette County native who has spent much of her career helping others discover what makes this community special. Through her work in tourism, the Fayette County Chamber, and the Bridge Day Commission, she's been a tireless advocate for Fayette County and the New River Gorge region.

Today, Becky and her husband are raising their son here, continuing her family's connection to the community she has always called home. Her perspective as both a lifelong resident and community leader brings valuable insight to FCCF, and we're glad she's part of what we're building together.

We've spent the past several months introducing FCCF and sharing what we're learning throughout Fayette County.

What many people don't realize is that community foundations don't build themselves. Like the organizations we support, FCCF relies on local people who believe in investing in the future of our community.

Contributions help us continue building partnerships, expanding community connections, and creating a local resource that can grow for years to come.

We're grateful to everyone helping us get started.

Give local. Watch it grow.

One idea behind FCCF is simple: When people want to give back, it should be easy to keep that support local. There’s a lot happening right here in Fayette County—and a lot of opportunities to strengthen it even more. We’re working toward making those connections easier.

Meet Danny Swank

Danny was born and raised in Fayette County and now serves the community as a clinical pharmacist with AccessHealth. He's also well known for his involvement with the Fayetteville Youth Basketball League, where he serves as president.

Danny and his family stay active year-round, whether it's basketball, mountain biking, camping, rafting, or enjoying all the opportunities the New River Gorge area has to offer.

His connection to the community, both professionally and personally, makes him a valuable part of what we're building at FCCF. We're glad to have him on the team.

We're continuing to introduce the people behind FCCF. This is Mike Cassidy. After a career as a CPA and CFO, Mike chose to make Fayette County home because of the things many of us love most about this place: great people, outdoor adventure, and a strong sense of community.

Mike stays active in that community as a river guide, occasional guest staff member at local restaurants, and volunteer. He also enjoys traveling and is always looking forward to his next cruise.

As FCCF's Treasurer, Mike combines financial expertise with a passion for Fayette County and the people who make it such a special place to live. We're glad he's part of the team.
