Celebrate Brutus' 60th birthday by supporting our Student-Athletes.
As we prepare to celebrate Brutus’ 60th birthday, we’re not only honoring a beloved tradition—we’re looking ahead to the future of Buckeye Pride. As you know, the students who wear the Brutus suit aren’t just performers; they’re ambassadors of the energy, spirit, and excellence that define Ohio State.
Your commitment to the scholarship program plays a powerful role in shaping these student-athletes’ experiences and opening doors to opportunities. The impact of your gift will be felt far beyond the sidelines—it will echo through every moment of Buckeye celebration they help create.
Please join us in supporting our Brutus Student- Athletes with a gift to our Buckeye Funder. All gifts will be matched 1:1 up to $80,000. Please give and see your gift of support doubled.
Thank you again for your dedication to the Brutus legacy—because traditions matter, and champions like you make them stronger.
