Ohio State Day of Giving 2026
Unlock Even More Impact
Your early support helps unlock up to $1,000 in challenge dollars for your favorite college or unit, boosting the impact of every gift before Day of Giving even begins. Early donors create the energy and momentum that carry into April 14, helping ensure even more support is unlocked for students, faculty and programs that are poised to make a difference.
Here’s how it works: Each college or unit listed below is racing to rally supporters. When they reach a specific number of individual donors, a special pool of challenge dollars is released, instantly increasing their fundraising total.
This challenge isn’t about the size of your gift—it’s about participation. Every donor moves a unit closer to unlocking bonus funds. That means your $5 gift could be the one that makes it happen!
