Historical Ratings
Charity Navigator's ratings previously did not consider Leadership & Adaptability, Culture & Community, or Impact & Measurement. The historic rating mainly reflects a version of today’s Accountability and Finance score. More information on our previous rating methodologies can be found on our rating methodology page.
Rating histories are available for a growing number of rated organizations. Check back later to see if this organization has a rating history!
Murphslife Foundation cannot currently be evaluated by our Accountability & Finance methodology due to only having one year of electronically-filed IRS Form 990 data.
To ensure year-to-year consistency the Encompass Rating System's Accountability & Finance beacon analyzes the three-year average of some data provided through the IRS 990.
Charity Navigator currently only has one year of consecutive e-filed Forms 990 from the IRS for Murphslife Foundation under the EIN: 85-3332093.
Before Charity Navigator can evaluate Murphslife Foundation, Murphslife Foundation will need to e-file for additional fiscal years.

Investment in Leadership Development
30 out of 30 points
The nonprofit has an opportunity to tell the story of how the organization adapted to tremendous external changes in the last year.
Trapped in a border town of Ecuador at the beginning of
the pandemic, and down to his last $200, Aaron Murphy
gave the last of his resources to a family in need of food,
starting the MurphsLife movement.
This act of kindness gained so much attention on social
media, that people started donating so Murphy could
continue his journey in helping people who need it most,
while telling their stories.
