Luckey Jr., at Blue Raider Stadium on Saturday, Sept. 15, 2018, before kick-off at the Blue Raiders vs. University of Pikeville football game.

Parnell pledged that if the LWC received gifts from 3,000 donors during the 48-hour period of Sept. 11-12 he and other members of the LWC Board would add $1 million to scholarship aid. The two-day campaign, dubbed "All In For LWC," attracted 3,572 gifts totaling more than $1.4 million. Since the Chair's Challenge began in 2014, the number of donors has increased by 2,912 and the total dollars raised has increased over $1.2 million - simply amazing!
