The Lawrence M. Hecker Future of Possibility Award was created in honor of Larry Hecker. The award is to be presented each year to an individual or organization that is committed to building bright futures in the Tucson community, as Mr. Hecker has done for decades.  This year, Sherry Hoskinson is honored to receive the Hecker award.

“Sherry’s kindness, strategic thinking and personal mentorship has made a huge impact on future success of me and thousands of other former UA students and community colleagues.  Her legacy and impact on our community continues to be shaped by her endless leadership in founding IdeaFunding and her support for entrepreneurs through the McGuire Center, Tech Launch Arizona and 5Lights.”  – Justin Williams, McGuire Alumni and Founder, Startup Tucson
