Wish Upon a Beloved Buckeye

Ohio Staters Inc., seeks to honor the Buckeyes who came before us through Wish Upon a Beloved Buckeye
Wish Upon a Beloved Buckeye (WUBB) seeks to install a statue to fill the need for a reflection space on campus where Buckeyes can honor their lost beloved Buckeyes. This project matters because all Buckeyes matter and no tradition is more important than the lives and stories of our students, staff, and faculty.
It will be positioned outside of Browning Amphitheater in Mirror Lake Hollow accompanied by benches. With Ohio Staters, Inc’s largest current budget, the Buckeye leaf statue will cost almost $200,000. To feature those whose support made this possible, there will be a donor website organized by donations as follows:
$1,000: Your beloved Buckeye’s name
$2,000: Your beloved Buckeye’s name & photo
$5,000: Your beloved Buckeye’s name, photo, and a short biography
Donations of any amount are beyond appreciated (not limited to tiers) and contribute towards the success of this project.
