For Brett and Lesha White, becoming part of the 网红头条community was divine intervention. Residents of north Georgia, the Whites have witnessed the expansion of KSU over the years.

Longtime friends of KSU Foundation Vice-Chair, Chair-Elect Teddy Parrish, the Whites explained they were inspired to get involved in the KSU community because of Parrish鈥檚 excitement about the trajectory of the University.

鈥淢y family and I care deeply about the greater good of society, and if a KSU alumnus can be that engaged and excited about the future of the University, we felt it must be a wonderful opportunity to make a difference,鈥� Brett said.

鈥淯pon my first introduction to the White family, I knew they had a heart for making an impact within our community,鈥� said Director of Athletics Milton Overton. 鈥淭he magnitude of their generosity to invest in our first-ever KSU Athletics capital campaign is exactly why the Board of Regents granted our recent approval for a renovated baseball facility. This approval happened, in part, because of the White family.鈥�

Brett, who played baseball in college, has always had a genuine love for the sport and recognizes the competitive advantage stadium upgrades will provide the program.

鈥淚n today鈥檚 environment, you need every edge you can get to attract the best student-athletes,鈥� said Brett. 鈥淲e hope our gift helps elevate the baseball program and facilities to match the consistently great talent at KSU. We feel this is a great long-term investment to enhance the visibility of the baseball program and the overall student-athlete experience.鈥�

With the Owls鈥� move to Conference USA in July of 2024, Brett said he鈥檚 confident in their ability to rise to the challenge, noting KSU Athletics鈥� history of success across multiple sports.
