Our History

Ormiston Families exists today because of one family’s tragedy.

A young woman, Fiona Ormiston Murray, died while on her honeymoon. Fiona loved children and it was no secret that she was excited about starting her own family. Her family, devastated by their loss, wanted to do something to honour her memory. They created a charitable trust devoted to helping children and families in need. That trust is now known as Ormiston Families.
