A Rich life

It’s hard to believe our friend & coworker, Rich Walburg left us one year ago.

While we hold him daily in our hearts and thoughts, we also honor him in a number of ways.

To honor his legacy, his life’s work, and his alma mater, the Richard Walburg Media Scholarship at the University of Cincinnati has been established.

Giving back

You can donate to the scholarship here.

Please put “Richard Walburg” in the memo line.

“Rich was Cincinnati’s cheerleader for most of his career,” says Jackie Reau, CEO of Game Day. “We were so lucky to have Rich join us at Game Day. I miss Rich as a trusted colleague and, more importantly as a great friend.”

In addition to Rich’s scholarship, you can still purchase a ‘Be. Kind.’ t-shirt online or at your local Cincy Shirts.

All proceeds from this Be. Kind. T-shirt will directly benefit the UC scholarship.

Rich Walburg would want you to be kind to one another and yourself.
