Held by Department Chair Sayoko Moroi, MD, PhD
Once established, an endowed fund is a dependable and perpetual source of support, since the principal is invested and only a portion of the earnings is spent annually. A minimum gift of $50,000 is needed to establish an unrestricted endowment, while $100,000 is needed for a restricted endowment. Call 614-293-8760 or send an e-mail to eye@osumc.edu for information on endowments. We are grateful for our current Ophthalmology Endowments. Read more about our Endowment Honoree Celebration.
