Polish Studies Initiative Concludes Third Annual Buckeye Funder Campaign

PSI Thank You graphic

We are thrilled to announce the successful completion of our 2025 PSI fundraiser! Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we raised $5,025 from 53 donors—surpassing our goal of 45 donations before the December 5 deadline.

These gifts directly support PSI’s mission to connect students, faculty, and the broader community through programs that celebrate Polish language and culture. Donors included current students, alumni, faculty, staff, and friends who believe in the power of cultural exchange and education. Many shared heartfelt messages about what PSI means to them.

One supporter reflected:
“The Polish Studies Initiative opened doors for me, and I want other students to have that same opportunity.”

Another shared:
“I studied at Jagiellonian University years ago. Supporting PSI is my way of paying it forward so another student can enjoy that life-changing experience.”

You can read more of these inspiring messages on our donor wall.

Thank you to everyone who donated and helped spread the word. Your support ensures that PSI can continue offering meaningful programs and opportunities for years to come.

If you missed the campaign but would still like to contribute, donations are gratefully accepted anytime through Ohio State’s online giving site.

Thank you for making this campaign a success!
