M.J. MURDOCK CHARITABLE TRUST
Come to learn about one of the Pacific Northwest’s premier foundations.
“The M. J. Murdock Charitable Trust seeks to enrich the quality of life in the Pacific Northwest by providing grants and enrichment programs to non-profit organizations that seek to strengthen the region’s educational, spiritual, and cultural base in creative and sustainable ways.”
The Trust has a welcoming and informative website for community organizations.
It lists their funding priorities, tells you how to apply and even includes “Great Grantwriting”, a 7-page PDF of sound advice.
After doing your homework (sort of a matchmaking game - are you a good match?) come meet Mr. Dana Miller, Senior Program Director for Grant Programs. Mr. Miller is responsible for providing general leadership and oversight of the Trust’s grants program and its associated processes. He will speak about the Trust’s interests, programs, process. And answer questions. So bring your best questions.
Monday, August 23rd.
Program 12:00 to 1:30; Please arrive at 11:45 to check in.
