California resident Lloyd G. LeCain is the current CEO of Heavy Construction and Engineering as well as an experienced naval captain. As a small business owner, Lloyd LeCain is a member of the Naval War College Foundation (NWCF).
The non-profit associated with the US Navy’s staff college, the NWCF receives and handles all funding, grants, and donations to the Rhode Island Naval War College and its initiatives. Admiral Richard G. Colbert, president of the Naval War College in 1969, collaborated with a few of his contemporary business leaders, military leaders and philanthropists to propose a Foundation that would provide the institution with sufficient resources to develop. At the time, the college relied solely on Congressional funding, so it was vulnerable to rising costs. By providing a platform for private benefactors, organizations, and military stakeholders, the NWCF has been able to grow funds to support the college’s mission to train military leaders, from all branches, domestically and abroad, and all of its academic, gaming, and research programs. The NWCF has multiple membership options for individuals, Naval War College alumni, and corporate sponsors. Corporate sponsors, for example, have six membership tiers to choose from, each one granting greater access to the Naval War College campus and its events. Members of all tiers receive an electronic subscription to the NWCF’s newsletter. In turn, their involvement gives the staff college trainees access to guest lectures, networking events, scholarship awards and research grants, and the organization of public awareness initiatives.
