Partner Spotlight- Spencer Fane

Spencer Fane is selected as the CGSC Foundation Corporate Partner for September 2015.

Long a supporter of the Foundation, Spencer Fane has stepped up as a corporate sponsor for numerous events and programs over the years. Both last year and this year’s Celebration of International Friendship events enjoyed Spencer Fane’s generous support. Additionally, Spencer Fane has signed up in 2015 to support the General of the Armies John J. Pershing Great War Centennial Series, an educational outreach lecture series program led by the CGSC Department of History and supported by the CGSC Foundation.

Of note in its support of the CGSC Foundation is Spencer Fane’s own partner, Mike Hockley, who has served as a Foundation trustee for four years and has served as president of the board of trustees since March 2013. As a former Army officer and lawyer, Mike has served the Foundation well and has helped garner support for Foundation not only from his own company, but also from many others.

“The leadership of Mike Hockley and the generous support from Spencer Fane has been invaluable to us,” said Doug Tystad, Foundation CEO. “It seems that there is always a Spencer Fane role in supporting our programs and we value their participation greatly. We especially appreciate their flexibility in allowing Mike to assume a leadership role with the Foundation. We know that it’s a big time and responsibility commitment for them and for him.”
