Middle Georgia State University announced two new hires in Nancy White as the Vice President for University Advancement and Gibson “Kelly Pope” as the executive director of Development and Planned Giving.

White, who also serves as executive director of the University Foundation, joins MGA after serving almost four years as executive director of the Macon Volunteer Clinic. Pope comes from Kennesaw State University, serving as senior director of Planned Giving, where he developed, implemented, and managed the program for KSU donors.

According to a university release, White will lead the philanthropic efforts of the Middle Georgia State Foundation to raise funds necessary to significantly advance the University’s mission. She also serves as the primary lead for all alumni functions. Pope will focus on increasing the amount of planned giving and major gifts to the Foundation.
