Founded by parents Don and Sue Murphy and brother Brad Murphy as a donor advised fund.

Jessica Lee Murphy was an involved student-athlete at Governor Thomas Johnson High, where she played volleyball, basketball and softball. She was a dedicated member of the community, working as a tutor at Spring Ridge Elementary and contributing as a member of St. John the Evangelist Roman Catholic Church. Miss Murphy’s family—parents Don and Sue and brother Brad—established The Jessica Lee Murphy Memorial Fund to honor the memory of their young family member, who died tragically from injuries sustained in a car accident. The memorial fund speaks to the interests and issues close to Miss Murphy’s life.
