As Executive Director of Valor Partners, Kelli Campbell-Goodnow passes on the hope and help her family was given in their time of tragedy and honors the legacy of her late husband and all those who serve our nation.

Campbell-Goodnow's journey is marked by faith, resilience and grit. On Jan. 14, 2016, her husband of 15 years, Maj. Shawn Campbell, and 11 of his fellow Marines lost their lives when their helicopters collided over the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii, during a night-time training exercise.

Campbell-Goodnow and her four children moved to Kansas City to be near family as they faced the daunting task of starting a new life. Educational scholarships allowed her to enroll her previously homeschooled children at a private K-12 school that became a source of support and stability as they navigated loss and change. These experiences led her to become an advocate for military family educational support. She spent five years as a nonprofit ambassador, speaker and development officer with Folds of Honor, growing her knowledge and skills in the for-purpose sector before eventually taking leadership of Valor Partners in March 2023. Valor Partners partners with colleges and universities nationwide to provide matching-fund scholarships for dependents of 100% disabled and deceased veteran service members.

Campbell-Goodnow holds a bachelor’s degree from Texas A&M University and graduated with an Executive MBA from Rockhurst University in May 2024.
