Sherry Turner Selected as Legacy Award by Thinking Bigger Business

Sherry Turner, founder of OneKC for Women, has been selected as the 2015 Legacy Award recipient by Thinking Bigger Business Media. 

Each year, as part of every year’s 25 Under 25® celebration, Thinking Bigger Business Media presents the Entrepreneurial Legacy Award to a leader in Kansas City’s small business community. The winner is always someone who has made enduring contributions to the entrepreneurial community.

This year, they are proud to recognize Sherry Turner, the founder of OneKC for Women. It’s an alliance of organizations—the Women’s Employment Network, the Women’s Business Center and the Women’s Capital Connection—that help women pursue their professional and financial goals.

Turner has a long history of working on behalf of Kansas City small businesses through previous service with the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce and the Kansas City Area Development Council.

Past winners of the Legacy Award include Bert Berkley, William H. Dunn Sr., Donald J. Hall, Patricia Brown-Dixon, Danny O’Neill, Barnett Helzberg, the late Ewing Marion Kauffman and many more.

Turner and the winners of this year’s 25 Under 25® Awards will be featured during a gala event on Feb. 28 at the Downtown Marriott’s Muehlebach Tower.
