There are many ways to contribute, including:

www.oplates.com for purchasing options.
   
Tax form Ohio's Tax Check-Off Option
Ohio's natural areas and endangered wildlife income tax checkoff programs have fostered the return of bald eagles, peregrine falcons, and trumpeter swans to the state's skies. Donations made through simple checkmarks on the state income tax form help ODNR protect natural areas and scenic rivers, reintroduce endangered wildlife, and preserve wetland habitat.
