How To Give
The Friends of Ohio Sate Crew is a 501(c)(3) organization whose exclusive mission is to support The Ohio State Crew program. 100% of donations directly support the team and offer the team greater flexibility to achieve their goals. All donations are tax-deductible.
We accept both one-time and recurring donations
Recurring donations help us better forecast the amount we can make available to the team on an annual basis – and we’d love to see all of you at $20 per month – but please give as you see fit!
Recurring donations can be set up by selecting the "Monthly" option on the Donate page.
We accept direct donations through two different funds:
You can select which fund your donation goes to in the drop-down menu on the Donate page.
The Grand Final Initiative

The David Messerschmitt Scholarship Fund
In memory of David Messerschmitt (class of 2006), this scholarship continues the tradition of Buckeye rowing by awarding a yearly scholarship to fund the dues of a student-athlete in need.
