Trish has had more than a decade of compassionate caring for people with differences and always championed better futures for people who are differently abled. She coordinated hundreds of athletes with unique needs on the Rocky Mountain Special Olympics Team, and served on multiple boards and committees with similar vision before starting the Courageous Faces Foundation.

As a bonus, Trish also brings a savvy and strategic sense of financial management to the Foundation so donors can be assured their dollars are being allocated in the most carefully planned and cost-effective ways. Prior to embarking on her philanthropic journey, she served as Associate Vice President and Portfolio Manager at Wells Fargo Advisors. In 2010, Trish retired from the position to fully embrace her passion for helping people who have unique medical conditions to not just survive but thrive.

She and her husband Rick share their home with their dogs who are adoring enough to let them continue living there.

“When I first started the foundation, I noticed that people who have a rare condition don’t have a community. They don’t have a group that surrounds them that really lifts them up, helps them figure out things day-to-day. It could be a resume, a clothing issue, or technology. We started the foundation with that in mind.” – Trish Morris

Her breakthrough methods unlock barriers to learning and “rewire” around brain injuries, and vision perception or processing deficits.
