Thank you for supporting the first annual Soirée for Scholars, hosted by the DMSF Associate Board! On Friday, February 24, we welcomed 275 guests at the Bank of America building for the largest Associate Board event to date, with record-breaking results, thanks to the incredible generosity of our guests and donors.
Together, we raised $138,000 in support of Murphy Scholars! Event highlights included an unbelievable silent auction and a powerful speech by Fernanda Ponce, Murphy Scholar Alumna (Class of 2019), Deerfield Academy graduate, and current junior at the University of Chicago. We are extremely grateful to this community for helping Murphy Scholars achieve a pathway to educational access, enrichment opportunities, and future success! |
Associate Board
The DMSF Associate Board is comprised of a group of young leaders and professionals, including several Murphy Scholar Alumni, dedicated to serving the community through fundraising and volunteerism. The Associate Board meets quarterly to learn about ways to support Murphy Scholars and introduce new partners to the program. Associate Board members have a unique perspective in the charitable world and they connect with our newest generation through digital campaigns, networking events, and Scholar mentorship. |
Thank you to our generous 2023 sponsors!
