Community Involvement

Murtha Cullina Scholarship Funds

A few years ago Murtha Cullina made the decision to turn the tradition of holiday giving into scholarship funds benefiting inner city children. In Connecticut, scholarship funds were set up at The Hartford Foundation for Public Giving and The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven. The income of the fund is to be distributed annually to support scholarships to post-secondary institutions (accredited colleges or universities) for needy students from the Hartford and New Haven areas (with a preference for students from each city).

With the firm’s presence in Boston and Woburn, Massachusetts, Murtha is proud to support the Boston-based ACCESS Program, an independent affiliate of the Boston Plan for Excellence, established in 1985. The organization’s mission is to ensure that no graduate of a Boston public high school is denied the chance for a college education due to a lack of financial resources.
