"Together, we can and will make Miracles Through Service."

During their years on the Board of Lions Clubs International, Past International President Al Brandel and Dr. Maureen Murphy celebrated the "Everyday Heroes" who performed "Miracles Through Service." Throughout their travels, they were frequently drawn to a cause close to both of their hearts - children.

For 20 of his 35 years as a Detective with the Nassau County Police Department on Long Island, NY, Past  President Al had been assigned to the Juvenile Aid Bureau specializing in cases involving child abuse, missing children, and domestic violence involving children.

At the conclusion of his year as International President, 2008 - 2009, Al and Maureen were offered a gift as a thank you from the Lions of MD20.

Instead of the gift, Al and Maureen decided to use that donation to establish the Foundation that bears their name. With this seed money, a Board of Trustees was formed and the Brandel-Murphy Youth Foundation was born.

Since 2011, through the generosity of Lions throughout Multiple District 20 (New York State and Bermuda Lions Clubs) and around the world, the Foundation has distributed 154 grants totaling $281,378 through our Grant programs, including our $2,000 matching Standard Grants, $2,500 Emergency Grants, as well as our new Major Grant program. Due to the efforts of those Lions who have applied for these grants nearly 185,000 children in need have received assistance.

The "Miracles Through Service Award"

Miracles Through Service Award

The Brandel–Murphy Youth Foundation has created a unique award to recognize the outstanding service performed by Lions throughout Multiple District 20 (MD20) - the "Miracles Through Service" Award. This award was aptly named after an important theme used by PIP Al Brandel during his year as our International President.

Each Governor in MD20 will be able to nominate one outstanding Lion in their district for the "Miracles Through Service" Award. Each Governor will receive a nomination form to be completed and returned to the Foundation. The Governors may not nominate themselves.

The nomination must first be approved by the Board of Directors of the Brandel–Murphy Youth Foundation, cannot be purchased, and is only presented through the Foundation. During a special ceremony at the MD20 Convention, each recipient will be presented with their medallion, a certificate signed by PIP Al and Foundation President PCC John Wargo, along with a lapel pin that can be proudly worn or displayed to honor their outstanding service.

In addition to being nominated by each district governor on a yearly basis, PIP Al Brandel and Lion Dr. Maureen Murphy may also select one outstanding Lion each year, who in their opinion, has done outstanding service for those in need. Lastly, the Foundation Board of Directors may nominate a "Miracles Through Service" Award recipient each year as well bringing the annual total to only 13 awards.

"Everyday Hero" Fellowship

A Wonderful Way To Give

"EVERYDAY HERO" FELLOWSHIP

It is the strong belief of both PIP Al and Lion Dr. Maureen, as well as the Foundation which bears their name, that Lions and others who selflessly give service to their communities should be recognized for being an “Everyday Hero" to those in need.

Like the "Miracles Through Service" theme, “Everyday Heroes” became a central part of PIP Al's year as our International President.

Therefore, in an effort to promote the service goals of the Brandel-Murphy Youth Foundation, and recognize those who perform this service, the Board of Directors established the "Everyday Hero” Fellowship program.

The Brandel - Murphy "Everyday Hero"' Fellowship may be presented to worthy Lions and Non-Lions for a donation to the Foundation in the amount of $300.


Unlike the "Miracles Through Service" Award, a Brandel - Murphy "Everyday Hero" Fellowship can be requested by anyone who wishes to support the Foundation. In turn, the Fellowship can be presented to any person the donor chooses. However, the donor cannot nominate themselves for this honor. Click here for an up-to-date list of those who are proud recipients of the "Everyday Hero" Fellowship.

To honor someone special today with the Brandel-Murphy “Everyday Hero” Fellowship, just click HERE to download an application. Complete the application and mail it with your check to the Foundation.

Or mail the “Everyday Hero” application but remit your secured donation today with your credit card by using this link: CLICK HERE.

District 20Y (formerly 20Y1) Upstate Golisano Children’s Hospital Pediatric Emergency Department Project: The Upstate Children’s Hospital has a new Pediatric Emergency Room Conference Room donated by 37 Lions Clubs and individual donations from Lions of District 20Y1 with the support of a Brandel-Murphy Youth Foundation grant. In this room, group conferences with doctors and families discuss the patient’s medical needs, as well as weekly pediatric staff meetings. The Pediatric Emergency Department sees approximately 27,000 children and adolescents annually, ranging in age from 1 day to 18 years old throughout the 19-county region of Central New York.

· The project be outside the normal purview of a club or district, e.g., a new project that has never been done before by the club or district.

Standard Grants are awarded up to $2,000 in matching funds. Major Grants are available to districts with awards between $10,000 and $20,000 in matching funds.

Clubs are eligible for one Standard Grant per year, with no limit on the number of clubs applying in a district. Districts are limited to one Major Grant every three years.

The deadlines for Standard and Major Grants occur four times a year: March 30th, June 30th, September 30th, and December 30th. Reviews are accomplished no later than two weeks after the deadline dates. Applications not received in time will be reviewed at the next Grant Committee meeting.

ADA WEBSITE WCAG ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT FROM THE BRANDEL-MURPHY YOUTH FOUNDATION
We want everyone who visits the Brandel-Murphy Youth Foundation website to feel welcome and find the experience rewarding, with respect to going above and beyond the Public Sector Bodies Accessibility Regulations 2018.

What Are We Doing?
To help us make the brandelmurphyfoundation.org website a positive place for everyone, we've been using the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and user-friendly for everyone.
The guidelines have three levels of accessibility (A, AA, and AAA). We’ve chosen Level A Compliance for this website.

How Are We Doing?
We've worked hard on this website and believe we've achieved our goal of 'A' accessibility. We monitor the website regularly to maintain this, but if you do find any problems, please get in touch.

Let Us Know What You Think
If you enjoyed using the website and found it easy to use or if you had trouble with any part of it, please let us know. We would like to hear from you in either of the following ways:
