About Jake White:

Jake White started his first company as a college student doing something that many people said was impossible… throwing giant parties… without any drugs or alcohol. After just a few months he had hundreds of students attending his signature “sober parties”, nationally known sponsors, and media coverage across the U.S… Today, Jake speaks to middle school, high school and college students all over the country to help them make great decisions.They even have the chance to throw their own sober parties, creating a positive peer-to-peer youth movement in their community. When Jake isn’t speaking or throwing parties, he likes to play games and sports with his friends, go on adventures with his wife Emily, or cross off items on his bucket list like going on the Price Is Right!
