“Over many years The American Ireland Fund has
supplied pump priming for the numerous projects of the Inner
City Trust. This funding has enabled the Trust to draw down
from other sources several million pounds, which has regenerated
the bombed out heart of the inner walled city of Derry, created
employment for both Catholic and Protestant young people,
and created hope where none existed.” Patrick L. Doherty, Chief Executive |
