Welcome to The Alamo Chapter of the Special Forces Association

Dear Special Forces,

Hi, my name is Sunda Keenan and I just thought I would write and let you know that I am very proud of our Army soldiers Green Berets so very much and because our Army soldiers Green Berets are doing a wonderful job these days. And I do support our Army soldiers Green Berets one hundred percent all the way.

"Receiving scholarships from the Special Forces Chapter 15 Scholarship Committee has had a profound impact on my life as a college student. Not only has it alleviated the financial burden of tuition fees and living expenses, but it has also provided me with the opportunity to fully immerse myself in my studies and extracurricular activities without the constant worry of financial constraints. These scholarships have not only opened doors for my education, but also for my personal growth by enabling me to pursue internships and volunteer opportunities that have enriched my learning experience and helped me develop important skills for my future career. Moreover, the recognition and support from the scholarship committee have boosted my confidence and motivated me to excel academically. It has made me even more determined to make the most of this opportunity and give back to the community in the future. Overall, receiving this scholarship has been a life changing experience, and I am incredibly grateful for the support and opportunities it has provided me as a college student."

"When I was in high school, I decided that I wanted to be an engineer. With the help of the Special Forces Chapter XV scholarship fund I was able to turn that dream into reality! I graduated from Georgia Tech with a degree in Chemical Engineering and am currently helping organizations calculate and adhere to complex state and federal guidelines. I am eternally grateful to the Special Forces Chapter XV members and their sponsors for the financial help that allowed me to achieve my dream."

Sincerely,

Casey Gomez

"Being selected as the first scholarship winner in 1986 by the Special Forces Association Chapter XV was an incredible honor. As I reflect, it was not only the association’s support that alleviated financial stress, but it was also the fact that I had been chosen that made me feel valued. To be recognized by an elite group of individuals who operate at the top of their field was very emotional for me. Their belief in my potential inspired me to work harder and continue to strive for excellence.

I am proud to say that I graduated summa cum laude from college and went on to also earn my master’s degree and several professional certifications. Alongside my professional career in leadership development which has spanned over 30 years, I currently serve on two non-profit boards.

I am so thankful for the association’s generosity and belief in my abilities all those years ago. Their contribution had a profound impact on my journey, and I will always be deeply appreciative. I hope you will consider joining their scholarship initiative by making a contribution that will also impact the journeys of other deserving college students."

Gratefully,

Catherine Connolly, MS, SHRM-SCP, PMP, CPTD

"I have been honored to have previously received the Special Forces Scholarships in past years. Receiving this scholarship has assisted me in affording the high costs of post-secondary school, such as Graduate school. With the assistance of the Special Forces Association and their gracious opportunities in the field of education, I am near the end of my college experience and will be obtaining my Master of Science in Finance and Economics. I highly urge other potential candidates to seek out this specific scholarship by these honorable veterans."
