Our Namesake
Larry Abernathy (1947-2012) was the embodiment of Clemson, and his passion and pride for the university knew no bounds. A gentleman, family man, and public servant, Abernathy was first elected to the Clemson City Council while he was still a student at the university. An avid outdoorsman, he once stated, “I am driven to environmentally friendly initiatives because I have three grandsons. And I want them to have a world that is as beautiful, as enjoyable, and as unharmed as it can possibly be.”
Proud Partner of Clemson Athletics
The Abernathy is a Proud Partner of Clemson Athletics, IPTAY, and a Proud Supporter of Dabo's All In Team Foundation. We are happy to support the enduring legacy of Clemson University’s athletics in all that we do.
The Dabo Room
The Abernathy is proud to donate 10% of revenue from The Dabo Room — which is covered in priceless Clemson memorabilia — to Dabo Swinney’s All In Foundation, a philanthropic organization that raises awareness of critical education and health issues for people across South Carolina.
