Ohio State University

Chris is a happy 23-year-old with Down syndrome who is also a huge sports fan!  Chris has always been a ‘Buckeye’ in his heart.  He dreamed of working at the Ohio State Campus. 
 
Thanks to the support of Robert and Angels for Higher, Chris’ dream has come true.  He now works welcoming students and their families at the main OSU bookstore managed by Barnes & Noble.  Chris’ Supervisor is very supportive and welcoming and Chris is very proud of his job.  He loves when fans stop by to ask him questions, and smile when he says hello. What a great success story of inclusion and being a respected, productive member of society!
 
Thank you to Angels for Higher, OSU and Barnes & Noble for making Chris’ dream come true.  Job well done! Go Bucks!”
