Kathy Kwan & the Eustace-Kwan Family Foundation: Outstanding Philanthropist and Partner

Kathy Kwan MBA/, MPH '93 is a local philanthropist who directs charitable giving for the Eustace-Kwan Family Foundation.  Since the Foundation's establishment in 2005, Kathy has sought out and supported high-impact programs and organizations in education, equity and inclusion, job training, and safety net sectors.  Kathy’s support of CLD is now in its 10th year and is focused on providing students with the soft skills and leadership development workshops needed to embark on fruitful careers – the kind of support that many students at more well-endowed colleges often receive as a matter of course through their personal networks.      

Kathy retired from Kaiser Permanente in 2004, where she held a variety of project management, consulting, and finance roles.

Kathy is married to Alan Eustace who served as the Senior Vice President of Knowledge at Google until 2015.  Alan also broke the world record for the highest-altitude free-fall jump. (135,908 feet) in October of 2014.
