Nancy and Fred Risser Plan Their Legacy

September 1, 2026

Fred and Nancy Risser already have given a lifetime of service to the Madison community, Fred as the longest serving member of the State Legislature and Nancy as a public school teacher in the Madison Public Schools. But the Rissers aren’t done giving back. They plan to leave a gift to support Madison Community Foundation’s Community Impact Fund through their estate so that the Foundation can continue to support the things that make our community great.
