Murray Human Services Inc is a non- government, charitable, not for profit organisation with Deductible Gift Recipient status.

Murray Human Services Inc has appointed a part-time Fundraising Coordinator to be a resource to the organisation and to coordinate fundraising submissions and events.
A needs list for future services and resources has been prepared and is reviewed regularly
