2025 marks 50 years of the Murdock Trust partnering with Pacific Northwest nonprofits to serve the common good. While much has changed in our region these last five decades, what has remained constant is the inspiring and dedicated efforts of those committed to supporting neighbors, cultivating the arts, catalyzing education, stewarding our lands, strengthening leadership, preserving culture, providing innovative healthcare, encouraging civic engagement, igniting scientific research, and so much more – all for the sake of greater human flourishing. This is the vision of collaborative, committed effort that our benefactor, Jack Murdock, wanted to support when he left instructions to establish a charitable trust.
In honor of this significant milestone, and in celebration of our benefactor and all those with whom we have collaborated over the years, we invite you to explore our 50th Anniversary page. As we update this page throughout the year with highlights of our journey, a timeline of Jack Murdock’s life and the Trust’s history, and the impact of our shared work, we hope you will explore, reflect, and stay connected. Thank you for being part of fifty years of meaningful partnership in our region!
