Campus Partners
The Ohio State University incorporated Campus Partners for Community Urban Redevelopment in January 1995 to promote improvements to the neighborhoods around Ohio State's Columbus campus. We have worked with the City of Columbus, neighborhood organizations and the university itself to prepare a comprehensive revitalization plan for these neighborhoods, known as the University District. Together, we are working to implement the recommendations contained in this plan.

Neighborhood Services, Inc.
Neighborhood Services Inc. (NSI) provides food, emergency assistance, friendly counsel, reliable referrals and faithful advocacy for the needy neighbors in the Ohio State University district neighborhoods.
NSI was founded in 1965 by churches in the OSU area who became aware of the growing needs of its nearby neighbors. From humble beginnings, NSI has grown into one of the largest food pantries in Columbus.
The working poor, especially those with children, are forced to turn to food pantries to help make ends meet.
With your help, NSI serves more than 700 people each month with food, clothing and other assistance. Nearly 40% of those we help are children. Their education is critical for an escape from poverty. For that reason, NSI offers programs for school supplies and new school clothing.
