Quote:Dabo and Kathleen Swinney recently pledged $1 million to IPTAY in support of Clemson football to provide future funding for programmatic and building initiatives that will continue to propel the program forward.
It is not the first time that the Swinneys have chosen to support programs at Clemson. In addition to past gifts of more than $340,000 from the All In Foundation in support of Call Me MISTER, ClemsonLIFE, Clemson’s Bio-Engineering Department (for breast cancer research), Clemson Community Engagement Department (breast cancer program), Clemson’s Education Department (Reading Recovery and Early Literacy), Clemson’s Outdoor Lab (new dock project) the Swinneys have personally donated more than $265,000 of their private funds to need-based scholarships, Golf Paws, the Clemson chapel project, IPTAY’s annual fund, and the completion of the WestZone.
“I love Clemson, and I believe in our program, and I feel like Clemson has been pulling for me since that first game in 2008,” Swinney said. “But no matter how much we win on the field, my passion is building and empowering successful young men through the game of football. Kathleen and I are blessed. And we have always known we need to use those blessings to do good for others. It’s so important to us that we give back to this program that has been so good to us.”
