Our story

Started with a handful of tickets

Founded in February 2025 with a passion for community and a love for Tiger Athletics, our nonprofit began as a grassroots effort to bring the excitement of game day to the youth of Clemson, Seneca, and surrounding Upstate South Carolina communities. What started with a handful of donated tickets and a dream to fill empty seats with cheering young fans quickly grew into a movement—one that connects local youth organizations with the spirit and pride of Clemson sports.

Testimonials

In their words

“On behalf of the Upstate Institute of Youth Programs, Inc., we sincerely thank you for the generous donation of tickets to the Clemson Women's Basketball games. For many of the youth we serve, this was an exciting opportunity to step outside of their daily routines and experience something really special. Your support helped us create lasting memories for the staff and students; and reinforce the positive impact of community engagement. We are truly grateful for the Tigers Give Back Program!”
Thwanda L. Davidson, Ed.D.
Executive Director, Upstate Institute of Youth Programs
“I would like to thank everyone involved in the Tigers Give Back. It is because of you, Children and Youth in our program experienced two outing opportunities they may not have, otherwise. The T.G.B. provided tickets for our Children and Youth to attend both a Gymnastics event in addition to a Clemson Tigers basketball game and they were ecstatic! Thank you for all that you do to create opportunities for those in our community. It takes a village, Thank you for being our neighbor.”
Vonda Johnson
Children and Youth Care Specialist, Ripple Of One
“This morning, we had the absolute blessing of going to a Clemson basketball game — something my kids (and especially my foster kiddos) will be talking about for a long time. From the moment we walked in, their eyes lit up with excitement. The noise, the music, the crowd — it was pure joy. For a few hours, they weren't worrying about anything else… they were just kids — cheering, laughing, and making memories together. As a foster and adoptive mom, moments like this mean more than words can explain. These experiences remind them — and me — that there's still so much good in the world, and people who care enough to make sure every child gets to feel special. Thank you to those who made this possible. You didn't just give us tickets — you gave us a morning full of smiles, hope, and memories that will last forever.”
