The Cousins Foundation provided a $5 million gift to establish the Cousins Scholars Program, which provides an annual scholarship to 24 service-minded UGA students who demonstrate significant need. They also endowed the Head Swimming and Diving Coach position.
“We believe in the power of community,” said Lillian Giornelli, president of the Cousins Foundation and daughter of Tom and Ann Cousins. “We know that the Cousins Scholars will gain valuable experience at the University of Georgia, which will enable them to make a positive impact on their communities.”
