Kennesaw State University Athletics

Audrey has a long history of giving at KSU, beginning as far back as the previous century. As a child growing up during the Great Depression and unclear on her potential to continue her education at the collegiate level, the Georgia native benefited from the help of work scholarships to attend Asbury College, while she also studied business management at Georgia State. Along with her late husband Jack, the two helped Audrey's sister, the late Dr. Bobbie Bailey, build the Our-Way air conditioning and refrigeration compressor remanufacturer company. By 2001 when it was sold to Carrier, it had over 350 employees and annual sales in excess of $45 million.
 
Audrey and Bobbie never forgot the humble beginnings of their childhood, and once they experienced success, they made it a goal to contribute to the local community and make investments in education, as they both had benefited from the help of others. The family is the largest combined donors ever at Kennesaw State at over $16 million since 1993. Among the numerous contributions she has made to Kennesaw State University: in 1999, with her husband, she established the Audrey and Jack Morgan Endowed Scholarship in Music, the largest scholarship endowment fund for KSU music students.  More recently, Morgan established the Audrey Morgan Nursing Scholarship to combat nursing shortages across Georgia in 2017. Altogether, she has supported 66 KSU students through her scholarship endowments. She and the Jack Morgan Foundation have also donated over $125,000 to building athletic complexes for KSU in the early 2000s.
 
Currently, Dr. Morgan serves as the Chairman and Chief Operating Officer of the Bobbie Bailey Foundation and is the Vice President and COO of Southernaire Music Company.
