Since 1985, the Oklahoma Foundation for Excellence has elevated public education in Oklahoma. We invite you to join us in uplifting Oklahoma public schools by making a gift to our nonpartisan nonprofit.
Public education is a force for progress in Oklahoma, and your support helps us to continue to recognize and encourage academic excellence in public schools. Our nonprofit champions education through esteemed honors, public school foundation support, grants for K-12 mentoring programs and partnerships that provide exceptional professional development to educators.
Our nonprofit exists to shine a light on our brightest — public school students and educators whose excellence inspires us all. Each May, we honor outstanding public school foundations, educators and students in the spotlight at our Academic Awards Celebration. You can showcase your commitment to public education by investing in this celebration of academic achievement.
The easiest way to support us in elevating public education. Simplify your giving by setting up a recurring donation. You choose the amount, frequency and payment method, and then we do the rest.
Our Roots & Wings Society brings together public school advocates who believe in the power of public education to transform lives and strengthen Oklahoma communities. Members’ gifts ensure we have the operational stability and visionary resources needed to continue recognizing academic excellence and investing in Oklahoma public schools.
Our nonprofit foundation accepts many types of gifts that are consistent with our mission of recognizing and encouraging academic excellence in Oklahoma’s public schools. Here are some of the ways you can make an impact:
Make a grant from your donor-advised fund.
Donate stocks or other securities.
Find out if your company matches charitable contributions made by their employees.
Include us in your will or estate plan.
Designate us as a beneficiary of an asset not included in your will, such as a life insurance policy or a retirement account.
Suggest us as the beneficiary of memorial gifts.
