WHAT IS THE KEITH KELLEY CLUB?
- The Keith Kelley Club is a charitable organization named in honor of Officer Keith Kelley the first SJ police officer to lose his life in WWII.
- The Club was organized in 1944 by now retired Chief of Detectives Bart Collins to assist fellow Officer Tom Fowler, a victim of cancer. Funds were raised but the cancer claimed Tom’s life before the contributions were expended. That money became the seed for today’s Keith Kelley Club.
- The Keith Kelley Club strives to assist members in need. Over the years, assistance has been given in a variety of ways to include financial gifts or interest free loans. The Keith Kelley Club sends flowers or a remembrance to members who are hospitalized, injured or off work due to an illness
- Although we are not a social club, we do celebrate our good fortunes with an annual summer BBQ and winter Dinner Dance. All this comes about through the generosity of our membership.
- We thank you for allowing the Keith Kelley Club to continue to be a pillar of support to our San Jose law enforcement family.
