| Little League Foundation
Little League Baseball and Softball are supported in part by the Little League Foundation, chartered in 1955. The foundation’s purpose is to guide the long-range ambitions of the program and to provide financial integrity for the Little League movement. Much of the support for Little League operations is provided though the workings of the foundation. The Little League Foundation is administered by the Board of Trustees of which Howard Paster of Washington, D.C., is president, Dr. Creighton J. Hale of Williamsport, Pa., is Senior Vice President, and Stephen D. Keener of Williamsport is Vice President/Secretary.

He joined the WPP parent company in August 2002, overseeing WPP's portfolio of public relations and public affairs businesses. Prior to joining Hill & Knowlton, he served as assistant to President Bill Clinton and director of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs. He is a member of the board of trustees of Tuskegee University, and a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
