IVMF Announces New Appointments to Advisory Board

The Institute for Veterans and Military Families (IVMF) has announced the appointment of two new members to its external advisory board.

JPMorgan Chase Vice Chairman John Donnelly has accepted a seat on the IVMF Board. David Owen, the global chief administrative officer at JPMorgan Chase & Co. will also join the IVMF Advisory Board as its co-chairman, assuming co-leadership of the board with Daniel A. D’Aniello (’68), cofounder and chairman of the Carlyle Group.

“We are proud and humbled that David and John have agreed to join the IVMF Advisory Board,” says Vice Chancellor Mike Haynie, the IVMF’s executive director and founder. “Both David and John have been longtime advocates for the nation’s veterans and military-connected families, and we’re excited that these world-class leaders will join the IVMF mission.”

The IVMF will leverage Owen’s years of expertise in global business development, marketing and integration as it continues to grow and support military veterans and their families.

With his background in human resources and leadership training, Donnelly will lend his extensive experience with global financial institutions to assist the IVMF with its national program expansion and sustainability efforts.

Owen and Donnelly have been instrumental in driving JPMorgan Chase’s commitment to positioning service members, veterans and their families for long-term post-service success through its many programs, including its signature facilitation of the Veterans Job Mission, a coalition of 240 large companies committed to hiring one million veterans. Owen and Donnelly will now bring that same passion and advocacy to the IVMF.

“Having worked at JPMorgan Chase prior to joining the IVMF, I saw first hand the firm’s impressive commitment to helping veterans succeed once they transition from military service—whether through careers in the private sector or small business ownership. Such commitment from a company does not happen without strong and dedicated leadership from the top of the organization,” says Maureen Casey, COO at the IVMF and former managing director of JPMC’s Office of Military and Veterans Affairs. “David and John joined JPMC’s chairman and CEO, Jamie Dimon, and others in leveraging the bank’s expertise and resources to serve those who have given so much for our country. Both David and John bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to our team, and we very much look forward to working with them.”

Members of the IVMF Advisory Board come from industry, higher education and the veteran and military community. They provide advice and counsel to institute leadership, and confer insight and input focused on the institute’s strategic objectives and planning process. The board also helps to assess the impact of IVMF programs, and makes recommendations related to future programming and areas of strategic focus. A complete list of IVMF board members can be found on the IVMF website.
