ABOUT US

Conway Mill Trust took over fundraising efforts for the people and communities of  Northern Ireland in Fall 2005, when eight Pittsburgh-based men and women took over Doirse Dochais (“Doors of Hope”) after Elizabeth Logue, one of its founders and last remaining board members, retired. Conway Mill Trust and its predecessor, “Doors of Hope”, were chartered in 1988.

Although the name has changed, the mission is the same– to work for economic, community, social and cultural redevelopment in Northern Ireland. We carry out this mission by fundraising in the U.S. in order to provide grants to the eight community groups we support. The decision about how the funds will be used is left to the community groups themselves, so that they can direct the funds where they are most needed.

The core contributors to "Doors of Hope", now Conway Mill Trust, have remained steadfast in their support, and we are grateful for their outstanding loyalty.
