Sheridan Construction, located in Macon, Georgia and founded in 1947, is Georgia Southern University Athletic Foundation's first construction company endowment.
The generous $100,000 endowment is open to all construction majors, but will alternate annually between a student and student-athlete. Sheridan's goal is to support females and minorities in the leadership positions within the construction industry.
Sheridan's mission statement, "we will give back to the community, the good fortune that it has given the company and we will encourage our employees to do likewise" is exemplified through the philanthropic donations the company has gifted to Georgia Southern University and Athletics.
