In honor of basketball star Justin Hardy, BSBA &＃8217;21, an anonymous donor pledged&＃160;$500,000 to endow the Justin Hardy Courage Fund at Washington University in St. Louis. To encourage support for the fund, the donor committed another $500,000 to match tribute gifts made by others.&＃160; The Justin Hardy Courage Fund will support programs and services that advance the well-being and career development of scholar-athletes.&＃160; Hardy died May 29, 2022, after a 13-month battle with Stage 4 stomach cancer. He was 22 and had graduated in December with a degree in accounting and finance from WashU Olin. Despite the toll the cancer took on his body, Hardy continued to serve as a positive force on and off the court. His courage and commitment to his teammates inspired countless fans across the nation, including the donor, a trustee and former WashU scholar-athlete, said Chancellor Andrew D. Martin.&＃160; &＃8220;Like so many of us, this anonymous donor wanted to pay tribute to Justin&＃8217;s legacy,&＃8221; Martin said. &＃8220;He was deeply inspired by Justin&＃8217;s tenacity, courage, selflessness and love of family.&＃160;He voiced what so many others are saying&＃160;&＃8212; that Justin should be celebrated uniquely and in a way that signifies his ongoing impact at WashU.&＃8221;&＃160; Those who wish to participate in the challenge can make a gift&＃160;online&＃160;or contact&＃160;Nancy Barter of University Advancement at&＃160;[email protected].
