Private philanthropy has had a rich and dramatic impact on Ohio University - from as early as 1816 when Christopher and Daniel Herrold forgave the debt for the lumber used to build Cutler Hall, to several, more recent capital campaigns. Gifts from generous donors have provided for scholarship and financial aid packages, research and faculty development, capital expansion and renovations, technology upgrades and lab equipment, library acquisitions, and vital unrestricted support that has allowed Ohio University to meet unexpected challenges.

Contributions can be made payable to The Ohio University Foundation and mailed to: P.O. Box 869, Athens, Ohio 45701. Please include designation indicating to which college/area your gift is restricted.
