Portland Alumni Club - About

About

The Ohio State University Alumni Club of Portland is a chartered member of The Ohio State University Alumni Association (OSUAA) that is dedicated to strengthening the Buckeye community—including fans, alumni, students, friends, and family—right here in the Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, Washington Metro area. 

As a club, we participate in the following activities:

  • Host game day watch parties for Buckeye football games.
  • Raise money for our student scholarship fund.
  • Organize social, community service, and professional networking events.
  • Recruit top students from Portland/Vancouver and award scholarships.
  • Support OSUAA campaigns for Buckeyes across the country.
  • Connect members with football ticket opportunities.
  • Provide an outlet for alumni, Ohio transplants, Buckeye fans, students, parents, family and friends of OSU to show their “Buckeye Pride.”

Boards and Committees

The Ohio State Alumni Club of Portland is run by a small group of volunteers from the Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, Washington metro area who are passionate about The Ohio State University and all things Buckeyes. The club is always looking for motivated volunteers and ideas to help the club reach its goals. If you would like to get involved, please contact us at theportlandbuckeyes@gmail.com.
