Marion S. Murphy

Marion S. Murphy was Orange County Clerk from 1981 to 1993. She was a strong supporter and former Board member of Orange County United Way. The memory of Marion S. Murphy remains very strong in Orange County. Marion’s contributions of time, energy, and financial resources to United Way, as well as to the entire community, were significant.

United Way first recognized Marion’s work and community commitment by establishing the “Marion S. Murphy Neighbors Helping Neighbors Award”. This endowment fund, which originated with a gift from Marion’s family, is a fitting next step in carrying forward her commitment to the people of Orange County.
