Story

#Giving Tuesday - November 30, 2021

Welcome family and friends! Join me and the DMSF Associate Board this Giving Tuesday in supporting the Daniel Murphy Scholarship Fund. 

I had the privilege of becoming a DMSF scholar back in 2006. DMSF's support led to me Deerfield Academy, and all the wonderful opportunities that came thereafter. 

The mission of DMSF is to give high school scholarship assistance and educational support to Chicago students from under-resourced neighborhoods. DMSF works diligently to provide Scholars with the best opportunity to succeed in high school and college. This year DMSF has awarded 142 scholarships to 8th grade students across the city.  Those students will attend parochial and independent day schools in the Chicago area, or boarding schools from coast to coast.

DMSF works to ensure that financial constraints do not hinder a young person's ability to obtain a quality education. Please consider donating to support our Scholars this holiday season! Your donation will make an invaluable impact on a Scholar's life. 

Thanks, 

Elisa Manrique
