Your Support
The net proceeds from your participation fees and sponsorship donations will go toward the operation and costs of running the Nicholas J. Murphy Foundation and the Nicholas J. Murphy Military Legal Clinic. The Nicholas J. Murphy Military Legal Clinic offers free and reduced rate family law legal services to veterans and active duty members of the Armed Forces and their families in the areas of divorce, custody, child support and all areas of family law in Peoria, Bloomington, and throughout Central Illinois.
The proceeds of the golf outing are the primary fundraiser we have for the Nicholas J. Murphy Foundation.
In 3.5 years of operation, we have undertaken 141 family law cases and completed $641,668.79 worth of free legal services through the Nicholas J. Murphy Military Legal Clinic. We are proud of what we have accomplished in honor of Nick Murphy and look forward to the continued growth of the Nicholas J. Murphy Foundation. Your support will allow us to continue to “Pay it Forward” and help veterans and military personnel in need.
