Carolina Panthers owner Jerry Richardson has donated $250,000 to the Johnson C. Smith University President’s Gap scholarship fund that helps students with college costs, the school announced Tuesday.
The scholarship was created in 2012 to close gaps students face between financial aid and tuition costs. Cameron Harris, a JCSU trustee and minority owner of the Panthers, helped secure the gift.

Why don’t you help out students at your alma mater, Wofford!
This is awesome that the owner of an NFL Franchise gifted and HBCU. Hmmm wonder is other owner will follow suit.
Sally Morrison,
Wofford, Really!!! let’s be serious the students at Wofford have a far lessor need for the gap scholarships than students at John C. Smith U. Also JCSU is a public HBCU and Wofford is private. Booyaou
