Mission
James and Robert Murphy founded the Daniel Murphy Scholarship Fund (DMSF) in 1989 to honor their late father's commitment to provide each of his children with a high quality private education. DMSF's mission is to provide four-year high school scholarships and educational support services to economically disadvantaged Chicago eighth grade students who demonstrate academic potential to ensure they are properly prepared for college. Scholars are supported throughout their high school years with tutoring and mentors. Summer employment is available through DMSF's Summer Caddie and Summer Opportunities programs. The Foundation provides SAT/ACT preparation, college counseling, and a college fair. DMSF grants approximately 100 new scholarships each year and supports the education needs of 400 scholars.
