Show the OSUDC board member at your gamewatch your gift confirmation for raffle tickets for our halftime raffles. A $1 contribution gets you 1 ticket, $5 gets you 6 tickets. You can make your contribution any time. Visit our website and watch our social media accounts on Saturday for the live link to donate!
