Philanthropic Purpose
Commitment to an accessible education is part of our University’s founding purpose. It’s a purpose that has been passed down to the next generation of alumni and donors — like Mark and Kathryn Richardson. The Richardson family has now inspired that same purpose in others through their support to Clemson at a championship level and by challenging the Clemson Family to do the same through support to scholarships.
