By matching contributions from the Clemson community, the Richardson’s Challenge, Champions 4 Access to Education, raised an additional $4 million for unrestricted scholarship endowments. The rest of their transformational gift supported Emerging Scholars, the Wilbur O. and Ann Powers College of Business and the College of Education through the ClemsonLIFE and Call Me MISTER programs.
