Vermell Segars Murphy Memorial Scholarship Fund

Vermell Segars Murphy was a dedicated alumna of West Charlotte High School who left behind a remarkable legacy of leadership, character, scholarship, and community service. Mrs. Murphy embodied resilience and selflessness throughout her life, championing these values while battling scleroderma, a rare autoimmune disease. Despite her challenges, she devoted her time to her community as a Girl Scout volunteer, cheerleading coach, and member of both the NAACP and the United Scleroderma Foundation. She was also a respected and long-serving deputy clerk of court in Mecklenburg County. This fund will be used to support a scholarship that aims to recognize and support students at West Charlotte High School who exemplify the values that Vermell Segars Murphy held dear.
