known for sharing his knowledge
and experience with others to en-
rich the lives of children and those
around him. He has focused on be-
ing a positive role model.
White joined Nike in 1982
after a stellar college career at
Maryland and a stint in the NBA
cut short by injuries. He is vice
president of the Jordan Brand, a
division of Nike and is the found-
er of the sports apparel company’s
“Believe to Achieve” youth move-
ment to inspire kids to reach their
full potential through focus, sacri-
fice and positive role models.
Known by the letter “H” for his
days at Maryland when he only
wore the letter “H” on the back of
his jersey, White helped the Terps
win the NIT and twice helped his
team make it to the Elite 8 of the
NCAA tournament.
It was after a second knee sur-
gery in college that he began to
focus on “who” he was rather than
“what” he was. Basketball played
an important role in White’s life,
but it didn’t dictate its outcome.
White and his wife Donna reside
in Portland, and are the proud par-
ents of a daughter, Mandy, a two
time All-American track star, who
helped lead the University of Ore-
gon to three Pac-10 championships
during her career, is now a profes-
sional track and field athlete.
“Each One Teach One” will
not only raise money for scholar-
ships, it’s a resource for students
and parents considering college.
Information about the grants and
resources available to attend both
local universities and the UNCF
network of colleges and universi-
L egaL N otices
ties will be a big part of the fes-
tivities.
This is just the second “Each
One Teach One” fundraiser the
local UNCF group has organized
and is sure to draw the interest of
a new generation of students and
parents. The event is free thanks
to the generosity of sponsors, in-
cluding Nike’s Jordan Brand, the
Portland Trailblazers, and Pacific
Power. Evening activities will in-
clude a silent auction, raffle, cock-
tails, hors d’oeuvres and music.
