Cameron KerryWhen Cameron F. Kerry was invited to chair the Reunion Gift Committee for the Class of '78, he saw his chance to repay a debt of gratitude to Boston College Law School.

"The most important thing I've learned from fundraising," says Kerry, "is getting over the reticence to ask people for money, and learning that when it's for a good cause, it's not that hard to ask. And BC Law School is that kind of cause."

Kerry, a partner in the Boston law firm Mintz, Levin, Cohn, et al. backs his classmates to meet the committee’s goal of $250,000. After all, he says, “if there’s any occasion on which people ought to join in giving, it’s a twenty-fifth reunion.”
