Buckeye Impact Day: April 5, 2025
Let’s create meaningful impact at a scale and show that when Buckeyes come together – whatever the world asks of us, we answer.
What is Buckeye Impact Day?
The Ohio State community is unique in size and spirit and positioned to make an incredible impact when we work together.
