Thank you to Hartman Fund Donors from student-athlete Aron WhiteEver wondered how your donation to the William C. Hartman Jr. Fund truly impacts student-athletes at Georgia? In addition to funding student-athlete scholarships and 21 varsity sport programs, Hartman Fund contributions support programs such as academic tutors and Champs Life Skills. Through these programs Georgia is able to offer its student-athletes the tools needed to succeed both in the classroom, on the playing field and in life after graduation. Aron White, junior tight end for the Bulldogs, is one of many student-athletes who utilizes these services throughout the year. Maria Taylor, of georgiadogs.com, recently sat down with White to discuss the affect Hartman Fund donations have on his overall experience at Georgia. Aron’s video can be seen here. You too can have an immediate impact on Georgia Athletics and its nearly 600 student-athletes by contributing to the Hartman Fund.
