Founder’s Day is a beloved tradition at the Murdock Trust that honors the life and legacy of our benefactor, Jack Murdock, and celebrates those who contribute to flourishing in the Pacific Northwest. This year, we are excited to welcome nonprofits, partners, and community members from across our region for a virtual gathering that will share insight into the work of our five sectors as well as the work of the Trust overall and how Jack’s legacy continues to inform and inspire our efforts to serve the common good.
UPDATE 7/8/24: Thank you for engaging with us at this event! View all recordings below.
