On October 26, 1993, the National Football League welcomed the Carolina Panthers as its 29th franchise. The Panthers commenced their inaugural season in 1995 and set a record for expansion teams by winning seven games. Over the course of 28 seasons, the Panthers have clinched six division titles, including three consecutive NFC South division titles from 2013-15. They have participated in 17 playoff games, winning two NFC Championships and competing in Super Bowl XXXVIII and Super Bowl 50. The Carolina Panthers are owned by David A. Tepper, the founder and president of Appaloosa Management, L.P., a globally recognized hedge fund, and a renowned philanthropist. The Panthers play their home games at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, N.C., which is located just a few miles from the North Carolina-South Carolina border, making it an ideal location to represent both Carolinas. The team prioritizes serving the two-state region by partnering with over 3,800 community organizations, non-profit agencies, and schools in the Carolinas each year to positively impact the region by providing philanthropic funding, resources, and opportunities.
