The Murray Family set up a new Foundation in 2017 to make charitable donations to their chosen causes which are listed below:
- The relief of distress of any person who has suffered the loss of a limb or part of a limb as the result of a traumatic incident.
- The advancement of health and, in particular, support for cancer charities;
- The relief of those in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage;
- To promote such similar charitable purposes, objects or institutions and in such proportions and manner as the Trustees shall think fit.
- The Foundation will prioritise supporting Scottish and local charitable organisations.
Foundation follow-On Policy
The Foundation appreciates the significant amount of work done by charities during the donation application process. The Foundation also understands the benefits of developing a relationship with each charity it supports.
In terms of any support beyond the first successful application, the Foundation has decided it will consider further follow-on requests for support in the 2nd and 3rd year of the relationship. However, beyond this timeframe, the Foundation will not consider any further support of the charity for a period of at least 3 years.
The above policy does not include any application for a multi-year project which will be appraised on its own merits.
The above policy is guidance only and at all times the Foundation reserves the right to apply a different approach.
All grants are made at the discretion of the Trustees and their decision is final.
The Trustees of the Foundation are Sir David Murray, David D Murray, Keith Murray, Andrew Godfrey and Craig McDermid. The Trustees will meet quarterly to consider any applications.
