Morris Thompson

The late Morris Thompson, a Koyukon Athabascan, was born and raised in Tanana, Alaska. The son of Warren Thompson from Indiana and Alice (Grant) Thompson from Tanana, Morris dedicated his life to Alaska issues and its peoples.

Morris was one of the State’s prominent business leaders. His service included being commissioner of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, served as president and co-chairman of the Alaska Federation of Natives and was the founding vice-president of Commonwealth North, as well as a special assistant to the Secretary of the Interior in the Hickel administration. He served on the board from March 1979 to November 1980. In 1985, he took over the helm of Doyon, Limited as president and CEO, leading the corporation as it became one of the most profitable and stable Alaska Native Corporations. He retired from Doyon on December 30, 1999.

Morris never forgot his village roots. He always referred to himself as “just another boy from Tanana.” He used his wit, values, and wisdom to heal, unite and lead. His lifelong commitment to bringing all Alaskans together in progress and prosperity made him a true bridge between cultures.

Each year, Doyon, Limited and Doyon Foundation host the Morris Thompson Memorial Golf Classic. This event raises money for Doyon Foundation’s Morris Thompson competitive scholarships, which are awarded to students who exhibit Morris’ most-admirable qualities, including vision, dedication to excellence, exemplary leadership, and integrity. Since inception of the event, the Foundation has awarded 214 Morris Thompson Memorial competitive scholarships totaling $556,180.
