Development @ MC Ed. 4 – January 2021

2020 Honorary Patrons Conclude Tenure

It is with heartfelt gratitude that the Murphy Centre recognizes the significant contributions of both Nora Duke, Exec. VP Fortis Inc. and Sheila Williams, acclaimed NL Entertainer, as Honorary Patrons during the inaugural year of our Development Initiative. Neither Snowmageddon nor Covid 19 could dampen their willingness to lend their influence to an organization they each strongly believe in. Thank you so much!

THANK YOU!!!…

.. to YOU, our newest donors, who affirmed for us that the message and work of the Murphy Centre resonates in the hearts of the general public and within the corporate sector. We were hesitant to state a financial target but we did have a $20,000 figure in mind. You have helped us break through that threshold to realize a final tally of $21,000.

We do not take your trust in the Murphy Centre programs and message for granted and will maintain contact by way of our Development @ MC quarterly newsletter.

NALCOR Gift

The Year Ahead…

2021 lies ahead with challenges and opportunities. As a not for profit organization working in the areas of Education and Career Services, the Murphy Centre has identified 3 new areas requiring funding to better meet the needs of current and future participants:

1. Helping our participants access and navigate the Technology Boom happening in our Province.

2. Expanding our footprint via technology to assist more Newfoundlanders and Labradorians to access services remotely.

3. Providing entrepreneurial training to participants in the Arts and across a wide swath of passions and interests.

Stay tuned for future developments!
