MSPCC is honored to welcome Patricia Murphy to the Board of Advisors. Pat retired as Senior Vice President and Head of Human Resources for Fidelity’s Enterprise Services at the end of 2022 after a 25 year career. She remains actively involved with Fidelity through board and committee memberships including the Board and Audit Committee of Fidelity Digital Assets, the Compensation Committee of Fidelity Investments, and the Remuneration Committees of Colt Technologies and Fidelity’s Data Center Business. Prior to Fidelity, Pat worked with Delaware North Companies. While there, she held many assignments, most notably at New Boston Garden Corporation where she led the transformation work culminating in the successful opening of the Fleet Center (now the TD Garden) in Boston.

How did you initially become involved with MSPCC?

My good friend, [former Board Chair] Chuck Senatore, invited my husband and me to MSPCC’s fundraising dinner. I was moved by the work people were doing to support families and children.

Why is supporting MSPCC important to you?

The mission of MSPCC and the needs of our families are somewhat personal to me. I grew up in less than ideal circumstances and I experienced what happens when there are struggles. Happily, I know firsthand what a difference emotional and financial support can make in the lives of children and families.

What excites you most about joining the MSPCC Board?

As a board member, I am excited about the opportunity to engage in ways that make meaningful differences in the lives of the families we support. I want to advocate and support the strategic and financial needs of the organization for the benefit of families.

If you could tell a potential MSPCC supporter one thing about the organization, what would it be?

The organization was a pioneer in advocating for the needs of children and the support of families. 140+ years later, we continue that advocacy and support. The needs of children experiencing significant stress and difficulties are not abating – they are growing. We need you and your support to continue the work..
