Derrick White is making a difference all around Boston | More Than An Athlete



Derrick White is making a difference all around Boston | More Than An Athlete

“It’s our responsibility to give back to the community because you can see how much the Boston Celtics mean to the community.”

From day one as a Boston Celtic, Derrick White has worked to make a major difference on the court and in the community. His involvement in organizations like Special Olympics Massachusetts, the Curbside Care program for young families, community court renovations and fitness for kids earned him the Shamrock Foundation’s 2024 Community Champion award.

Derrick White is so much more than an athlete.
