Did you know? In the early 1900s, UConn President Charles Beach showed his love for his late wife Louise with a curated art collection and endowment that helped shape UConn’s future.

Volunteer Spotlight: Tom Veilleux ’05 CCS

For more than 10 years, Tom has been a cornerstone of the Hartford Alumni Network. From helping usher in a new era of Alumni Engagement during the Alumni Association-to-Foundation transition to building one of the most successful engagement models in the Capital region, Tom’s impact has been extraordinary.

As a champion of UConn Cares, Tom has created countless opportunities for alumni to give back—strengthening community connections and supporting those most in need. His commitment continues to grow in remarkable ways. This past November, for the second year in a row, Tom and his team at Valvoline partnered with UConn Hartford’s Husky Harvest pantry to provide 90 Thanksgiving baskets for students and their families—meals that would not have been possible without his leadership and his team's generosity.

A proud legacy alum, Tom honors his Husky Heritage and inspires future volunteers through his leadership and heart. Thank you, Tom, for embodying the true spirit of Husky Nation!
