“<br />

– Juliette Mcneil<br />

EVERYOnE HAS A mORAL<br />

OBLIGATIOn to make a difference.<br />

This is not only what James and<br />

Juliette mcneil believe, it is how<br />

they live. The couple donated to the<br />

<strong>Inova</strong> Heart and Vascular Institute in<br />

2004 and James is the former chair<br />

of the quality committee at <strong>Inova</strong><br />

mount Vernon Hospital. Recently,<br />

the community-minded pair pledged<br />

a generous leadership gift to the<br />

hospital’s Campus Renovation<br />

Project. The capital campaign will<br />

extend the third tower, add 60 new<br />

private rooms, create two additional<br />

operating suites and enlarge the first<br />

floor by 12,800 square feet—further<br />

enhancing the hospital’s services.<br />

In 1984, James founded mcneil<br />

Technologies, Inc. The company<br />

grew exponentially, providing<br />

professional and technical services<br />

to federal and state agencies. In 2004,<br />

the company was sold to Veritas<br />

Capital. Two years later, James chose<br />

to retire and focus on the couple’s<br />

many charitable endeavors. Juliette<br />

had a very successful career with the<br />

Federal Government, retiring in 2004<br />

as a member of the Senior Executive<br />

Service. She said, “<strong>Inova</strong> has a value<br />

system similar to <strong>our</strong>s. no one is<br />

turned away who is in dire need<br />

of services. That is something we<br />

wanted to be a part of.”<br />

<strong>Inova</strong> mount Vernon Hospital<br />

anticipates ground-breaking this<br />

spring. meanwhile, James and<br />

Juliette look forward to their<br />

daughter, Ashley’s, upcoming<br />

wedding. Working with their<br />

foundation, she is following in her<br />

parents’ philanthropic footsteps.<br />
