Proceeds benefit Uplifting Athletes, Inc.
The Charleston Southern Football Chapter Lift for Life is coming up and our team is proud to dedicate our performance in support of Uplifting Athletes. Uplifting Athletes is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization which harnesses the power of sport to build community and invest in the lives of those impacted by rare disease.
Lift For Life is Uplifting Athletes’ signature event held by student-athletes at colleges and universities across the country. Our event is scheduled for June 30.
The challenges faced by the rare community are bigger than any one individual, team, or organization can tackle alone. Here at Charleston Southern, we take pride in the opportunity to shine a spotlight on rare diseases and support Uplifting Athletes so that no person feels alone.
Supporting our Lift for Life is simple! Fans can pledge for each 225lb bench press repetition we complete. Our goal is to average 12 reps during the event.

The Charleston Southern Chapter
The Charleston Southern chapter started tackling rare diseases when it joined Uplifting Athletes in 2021 and held its inaugural Lift For Life. Cooper Dawson, a native of South Carolina who transferred to CSU from Syracuse, has a strong connection to the Rare Disease Community. When he made his college choice, Dawson invited his good friend, who is a rare disease patient, to help make the announcement. At Syracuse Dawson participated in Lift For Life in 2019 and assumed a leadership role before transferring and bringing his passion to support the rare disease cause to his new school.
