Women of Compassion
Women of Compassion enables generous, community-minded women from across Oklahoma to be part of gifts that are collectively larger than most can afford to contribute individually. Members meet with other women once a year for a fantastic women’s event, where they have a voice to determine how the yearly contributions are spent.
Women of Compassion is open to women of all ages and denominations who want to make a difference in the lives of children.

- Are generous with your time and resources to help the community around you.
- Are passionate about your love for your family and friends.
- Enjoy being around other women with similar views and concerns.
- See a problem and you want to find a solution.

Annual Event
Members meet with other women from across the state annually, where they will be inspired by national speakers and hear from prospective grant recipients to cast their vote. Your vote, your voice, helps determine how the yearly contributions are spent. Absentee ballots will be made available for members unable to attend the event.
Women of Compassion enables you to be part of gifts that are collectively larger than most women can afford to contribute individually. Each donation for membership is due by the day of the annual forum.

Women of Compassion’s goal is to reach at least 100 members each year. By reaching our goal of 100 members, we will be capable of awarding a $50,000 grant to one prospective recipient and the remaining $50,000 will provide much needed operating costs to the remaining participants. If more than 100 members are reached, subsequent grants will be awarded in 50,000 increments to the remaining runner-up submissions.
