As “Interim” Executive Director for the past two years, Marc Fischer, President|CEO of InspiRE, oversaw the AOBA Educational Foundation’s (AEF) administration, operations and fundraising.

“Marc is extremely talented and possesses boundless positive energy”, said Peggy Jeffers, AOBA EVP.  Kathy Barnes, Chairperson of the AEF Board of Directors, added “We are indebted to Marc and his team for the remarkable strides they made promoting careers in building engineering and maintenance during the past two years.  We wish Marc much success with his next initiative”.

The AOBA Educational Foundation will focus its efforts for the remainder of 2019 strategically aligning our resources and planning for 2020 and beyond.
