Richardson asks in the letter that $10,000 go to each of the nine families of the victims and $10,000 for a memorial at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church honoring the memory of those killed in the shooting on Wednesday.
Bakari Sellers, a Democratic member of the S.C. House, tweeted a photo of Richardson's letter on Saturday morning. Richardson mentions the victims by name in the letter and writes ''our hearts are with those who grieve the loss of these individuals.''
Panthers spokesman Steve Drummond confirmed Richardson's donation."
