Funding for public education is in crisis. The shortfall is impacting everyone in the State of Oklahoma.
TTCU wants to help. We've made a $1 million challenge pledge to help public schools within the areas served by our branches. With this donation, we're launching "SOS - Support Our Schools," a campaign to raise significant funds for area public schools.

Our goal is to raise $4 million for area school districts. We're asking philanthropic groups, area businesses and individuals to join us in this effort.
In times of crisis, Oklahomans come together and answer the call. That's just the Oklahoma way. This crisis should be no different. Businesses, organizations, individuals - together we can make a difference.

Donations are being coordinated by the Tulsa Community Foundation. Donations can be designated for a specific school district or given to the general fund.

Then click "Other" and designate your local school of choice.



Ribbon Cutting
 Thanks to the Grand Lake Shriners for joining the Miami Area Chamber of Commerce.  They are a great organization who specializes in helping kids, but does so much within the community, too!
