About Us

Rooted in Community, Growing Together

Rich Soil Gives is a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering individuals and families. We partner with healthcare providers, developers, employers, and educators to deliver housing, jobs, skills training, entrepreneurship support, financial literacy, and scholarships.

Our Story

Founded by Baron Murdock, Rich Soil Gives began with a simple belief: when people have access to the right resources, they can build extraordinary lives. What started as a vision for stronger communities has grown into a movement that brings together healthcare partners, businesses, developers, and volunteers to create lasting impact.

From our annual benefit dinner to the Rich Soil Summit, every gathering is a chance to connect, celebrate, and accelerate the work of empowering families.

Our Vision

We envision a world where every individual and family has the foundation they need to thrive: a safe home, a stable income, practical skills, supportive networks, and the financial knowledge to build generational wealth.

By cultivating rich soil—strong partnerships, generous funding, and compassionate service—we help communities grow from the ground up.
