Event Vision

The Joe Burrow Foundation launched in October 2022, in parallel with The Society of Alumni & Friends Annual Event planning discussion.

The question quickly arose: How can the two organizations work together to engage Cincinnati region residents in a way never seen before, to benefit those we serve?

The answer? Mission alignment.

SAF Mission: “Empowering opportunities by connecting ambitious students to passionate Bobcat alumni”

The Joe Burrow Foundation Mission: “To provide resources and support to the underprivileged and underserved.”
