Donor profiles

The Neil Legacy Society is composed of generous donors from all walks of life, with one thing in common: they remember Ohio State in their estate plans. Here are a few extraordinary stories of donors who are no longer with us, but whose gifts continue to have impact on campus because of the plans they made long ago.
