Dawn Staley Helps Aflac Put Their Money Where Their Mouth Is In Supporting Women's Basketball

When Aflac decided they wanted to do more to help the women's game grow, they looked to none other than Dawn Staley for direction.

Dawn Staley has made her way onto millions of televisions across the country over the years but as a high-level player and the head coach of the South Carolina Gamecocks. She’s also gotten into her acting bag and has been featured in some pretty memorable Aflac insurance commercials as well.

According to Garth Knutson, Aflac’s SVP and Chief Marketing Officer, the company didn’t want that to be it. They didn’t want their support of women’s basketball to stop at bolstering Staley’s celebrity status, they wanted to help bring some of their ideas to life.
