Sister Cities Association of Fishers, Indiana (SCAFI) is the nonprofit agency representing the town and the community of Fishers in long-term partnerships with international sister cities communities. SCAFI was incorporated in 1986 as a 501(c)(3) non profit organization and is a member of Sister Cities International, which was founded in 1956 by President Dwight D. Eisenhower. SCAFI mission and goals focus on enriching the Fishers community through educational exchanges, business development opportunities, and citizen diplomacy via involvement in learning about solutions for global challenges and thought connecting with people from other cultures.

Fisher's sister city is Billericay, England, which is a family-oriented community 60 miles east of London. Billericay Park, located on Promise Road and 126th Street was named for Billericay, England.

The World Connection Club at HSE High School was instrumental in organizing a student visit to Billericay and a tour of London several years ago. They also organize a Billericay Day every April with contests and cultural information about England.

Sister Cities activities include working with the Fishers Park Department to create Billericay Park in Fishers, offering an international speaker forum on world issues, and organizing and sponsoring the annual Renaissance Faire in Fishers.
