Established in memory of Grayson Murray to raise awareness of mental health and addiction challenges, while advancing innovation services and research.
This afternoon, the @UNCHealthChamp honored the life and legacy of Raleigh native Grayson Murray: @PGATOUR and @KornFerryTour champion, McConnell Golf’s first scholarship recipient, and a cherished member of the golf community.
Family, friends, players, and fans gathered at No. 10 at @RaleighCC for a moving honorary tee time in his memory. During the ceremony, Grayson’s nephew distributed green wristbands, a symbol of support and a powerful reminder that no one should face their struggles alone.
His impact on the game and the countless lives he touched will not be forgotten. Through ongoing efforts to raise awareness and support for mental health, including more than $1 million raised by the @GM_FDN since its founding, Grayson continues to make a difference.
Our mission at the Grayson Murray Foundation is rooted in awareness, innovation, and impact.
Through education, advocacy, and support, we strive to break stigma, expand access to care, and ensure that no one has to face these challenges alone. #MentalHealthAwareness#EndTheStigma
@GolfDigest just shared a powerful story highlighting a different side of Brooks Koepka, and we were proud to see it unfold at @RaleighCC last fall during the @GM_FDN's inaugural Grayson Murray Classic.
From arriving early after traveling overseas to spending genuine time with the Murray family, volunteers, and young fans, Brooks showed up in a way that meant more than golf.
We’re honored our club could be part of such a meaningful day.

Spreading Kindness, One Golf Ball at a Time! ⛳💛
Over the 12 days of the Erie County Fair, Fairgoers of all ages stopped by the Kindness Clubhouse inside the Erie County Fairway to share what kindness means to them. From doodles to heartfelt messages, we collected countless golf balls filled with positivity—each one a reminder of the good we can do in our community.
A huge thank you to everyone who played, shared, and helped us drive kindness forward—and to the Grayson Murray Foundation (@GM_FDN) for making this special experience possible. Every ball, every bracelet, every smile made this Fairway one to remember. 💛 This also wouldn't have happened with out the help of our sponsors, so another thank you to @GoodHealthSauna, @MillansMc and Trautman Associates.
What does kindness mean to YOU? 🧡⛳️💙
Visit the Kindness Clubhouse inside the Erie County Fairway and share your answer on a waterproof golf ball—write it, draw it, make it yours! 🖊️🎨 Every participant gets a "Be Kind to One Another" bracelet from the Pro Shop, thanks to our partner the Grayson Murray Foundation. @gm_fdn

A very special day at UNC Health Championship at Raleigh Country Club as we remembered Grayson and shared stories to raise awareness of mental health. Thank you for welcoming the Grayson Murray Foundation and allowing us to be part of such a meaningful event.
Family, friends, and fellow golfers gathered today to pay tribute to Grayson Murray at the @UNCHealthChamp. Murray’s life was highlighted with speeches about his legacy and advocacy for mental health awareness. Thanks to the @GM_FDN, his wishes in helping others will continue.
Grayson’s demons were large but his desire to be understood, help whoever he could and heart were far greater. Miss ya kid. @GM_FDN
Check on your people and love them big 🤍
A year ago this week PGA Tour Pro Grayson Murray took his life after withdrawing from the @CSChallengeFW this week his family was back at Colonial supporting those impacted by mental health challenges. @CBSNewsTexas@PGATOUR

Good morning everyone, I was just sent this from the Grayson Murray Foundation & had a tear in my eye & thought I’d share it with you all 😢
With Heartfelt Thanks
As we are approaching one year since the heartbreaking loss of our son Grayson – who sadly took his own life – our hearts are filled with both sorrow and gratitude. This past year has been the most challenging chapter of our lives, but the unwavering love and support from so many of you have helped carry us through.
To each and every person who reached out, shared a memory, or simply held us in your thoughts and prayers – thank you. Your kindness has lifted us through and reminded us that we are not alone.
As a professional golfer, Grayson traveled quite a bit. He had a home in Florida, but his family home in North Carolina was always his safe haven, a place where he could let his guard down. However, we did not understand why he sometimes isolated himself, preferring a dark room instead of being out on the golf course practicing, or going to the gym, or just spending time with family and friends.
Only after his passing did we come to truly understand the grip that depression had on him. On his darkest days, he simply couldn’t bring himself to do the things he loved. That is why we are trying so hard to spread understanding of this terrible disease and hopefully find a way to help others not have to experience some of the same emotions that consumed us.
Losing Grayson shattered our world, and yet, in the midst of our grief, we found a purpose—one that Grayson himself had envisioned long before we ever imagined life without him. It was Grayson’s wish to start a Foundation to “help the ones that want to be helped but [who] might not have the help they need financially.”
That’s when the Grayson Murray Foundation was born. Initially, it gave us a way to keep busy, to manage the heartache. But over time, it became our purpose—a way to honor Grayson’s legacy and extend kindness to others. When someone tells us, “Your story gave me the courage to ask for help,” it brings a glimmer of healing. It doesn’t take away the pain, but it reminds us that Grayson’s life—and even his death —can still have meaning.
The mission of the Grayson Murray Foundation is to raise awareness of mental health and addiction challenges faced by individuals from all walks of life, while advancing innovative services and research. The Foundation aims to create a noticeable impact on mental health and addiction care by supporting innovative research; expanding access to essential services; and fostering a culture of understanding inspired by Grayson’s legacy of compassion, resilience, and hope.
To all who have supported this mission, who have walked alongside us in our grief, and who have helped carry Grayson’s light forward –we are deeply grateful. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for standing with us by honoring Grayson’s life and helping ensure his spirit lives on through the work of the Foundation.
