About UsThe Fry Family Foundation (FFF) is a private, U.S. based organization. It was founded and funded by Darryl and Marlene Fry, who were born and educated in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador (NL). In 1996, Darryl created five scholarships at Memorial University (MUN) to reward the accomplishments of the next generation and to recognize individuals who had inspired him. Establishing these scholarships inspired him to co-found the Fry Family Foundation with his wife Marlene in 1997. Read more about their story in Givers of the World: Celebrating 25 years of student support by the Fry Family Foundation. Learn more about Our Team of Trustees, Friends and Founders.

VisionFry Family Foundation aims to create lasting impact through financial support, and by building bridges between people, ideas, and resources. We support the development of leadership skills within our student population. We also assist disadvantaged segments of society and organizations that focus on education, enhancing wellness, eliminating barriers, and building communities. We will seek to expand the depth of impact by incorporating the principles of education and leadership into projects that we support so that individuals and organizations will thrive and attain their full potential.
Ethical PrinciplesFFF projects and funds are directed towards organizations that demonstrate strong, capable and energetic management, fiscal accountability and tax compliance. All charities we support must pass the USA public charity test or maintain status as a hospital, university, school or community.
