Murray, a seven-time professional winner who passed away in May 2024 at age 30, was known for openly sharing his struggles with anxiety, depression, and addiction while using his platform to help others. The foundation fulfills his vision of creating a nonprofit to provide financial and supportive resources for those seeking mental health or addiction treatment.
