Employee Giving

Join us in making a brighter future

Ohio State employees have a long history of paying forward to the causes that matter to them. Every gift, no matter the size, fuels the extraordinary work happening across our university and community. Whether you give to support students, research, health care or another cause that’s close to your heart, your generosity shapes the future.

Join fellow Buckeyes in making a meaningful impact. Give today, because together, we are building something bigger than ourselves — and that feels good.

Make a difference today

Because when we all believe in Ohio State, we are collectively able to promote positive change not only here in Ohio, but across the globe.
