CSU Alumni Stories
Member Spotlight: Kevin Keefe Fosters a Family Feeling
Kevin Keefe (B.S., ’81) is a Life Member of the CSU Alumni Association as well as a generous donor to campus programs. He also volunteers at many campus activities.
Helping Others Receive an Education
Giving back has been a central part of Jack Capp's life. The double alumnus has served on the Alumni Association Board of Directors and as president of the Ram Alumni Athletes Association. He also worked with CSU Athletics’ Hall of Fame and volunteers at the Ram Welcome picnics for new students and their families, Ag Day, and Athletics’ Football 101 and Basketball 101 programs as well as at other activities for international students.
Volunteering, Giving, and Learning
Commentary about lawyers seldom focuses on donation of their time. Among the attorneys who challenge that stereotype is Jim Martell (B.S., ’72), who has served on CSU foundation boards since 1980 as well as volunteered at other organizations on campus and in the community.
