As an entrepreneur, Neil “Hurry” McMurry knew that creating and running a business
meant taking care of others, working hard, and instilling integrity in all that he
did. His ethics paid off, as McMurry had profound success in his business ventures.
Through his philanthropy, he prioritized giving back to communities in need. McMurry
passed away in 2012, but his legacy continues to change Wyoming lives.
The TW Foundation has honored Neil McMurry and his spirit of generosity through a $1 million gift supporting UW IMPACT 307 (formally the Wyoming Technology Business Center), a statewide network of innovation-driven business incubators committed to growing and strengthening Wyoming’s entrepreneurial community by providing resources and support for founders to thrive. The gift will support the Casper Start-Up Challenge.
“My grandfather, Neil McMurry, was a smart businessman and dedicated philanthropist,”
says Tiffany Gamble, president of the TW Foundation. “I feel so grateful to be able
to continue his legacy. I think he would be proud to see the impact of this philanthropy.
IMPACT 307 is doing important work that will help carry the state forward into the
future. He cared deeply about small Wyoming businesses. This gift is a perfect fit
to honor Neil McMurry.”
