Through our missions and programs, Oklahomans have access to nonprofit services that reach every corner of the state. Our doors were never shut. Our staffs and volunteers adapted. Our boards leaned in. Our philanthropists – individuals, foundations and corporations – stepped up immediately. Where there were needs, we met them. Head on. We worked harder. We worked smarter.

Our mission is to empower nonprofits to achieve excellence in their missions. That’s no easy task. It takes people, it takes expertise and it takes collaboration to work together to achieve excellence. That’s how the Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits approaches everything we do. We start by learning. Learning TOGETHER. Whether it is in a classroom, on a virtual statewide call, watching a webinar, reading a blog or article, or just sharing together, learning is part of the process to achieve excellence TOGETHER. Our learning is guided by the simple principle – what does excellence look like and how do we get there? Sometimes that learning needs deeper, personalized attention. Working TOGETHER with leaders and boards of directors, we can answer questions, generate ideas together, facilitate frank and crucial conversations and act as a catalyst for innovation, change and synergy. Being there for our nonprofits as consultants and confidantes means nonprofits fly higher and faster. It also takes a network. A network of nonprofits of excellence, philanthropists, businesses, individuals, policy makers and the cheerleaders of the charitable sector. It’s a chain-link strategy. All of us hang on to our nonprofits hand-in-hand, along with the funders who fuel the sector. When another hand joins, we all feel it and squeeze tighter. And this creates an amazing network and voice for advocacy. Advocacy for the sector, advocacy for our missions and, most importantly, advocacy for the communities we serve. We approach advocacy through learning together about the importance of our voice, listening to each other and the needs of our community, launching each other higher to do more (and do more good), and lobbying for what is best for our communities. DANIEL BILLINGSLEY ADVOCACY CONNECTION OKCNP OUR VALUE TO OUR MEMBERS At the Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits 2020 Members’ Meeting, attendees were asked to share three words they would use to describe OKCNP. This word cloud is a collection of those words - a description of Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits provided by our very own members. 2019-2020 ANNUAL REPORT EVERYONE COUNTS. 08 Everyone counts. That means all Oklahomans. This year, the 2020 U.S. Census was one of the Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits’ biggest priorities. A strong Census count helps our state receive federal funding for education, healthcare, human services and infrastructure. Our nonprofits answered the call. Adam Soltani has been a strong voice in Oklahoma for equity and inclusion. His leadership at the Oklahoma Council on American-Islamic Relations has made an enormous impact on his own Muslim community and on Oklahoma as a whole. He knew the Census was important to our state, but he also knew that every Oklahoman – including the Okie Muslims – must be counted. Adam was an active member on the Oklahoma State Complete ADAM SOLTANI Count Committee, where Marnie Taylor OKLAHOMA COUNCIL ON served as a vice chair. He happily AMERICAN-ISLAMIC RELATIONS volunteered himself and others in his community to be a big part of the “OK, Let’s Count” campaign led by our Department of Commerce. He rallied other nonprofits to join in the efforts. He ensured that minority voices were included in the count and the campaign. Because of his work, his community was counted – in a big way. OKCNP also worked together with Michigan Nonprofit Association, inviting Donna Murray-Brown to Oklahoma to light the fire under our Census work. Along with the Oklahoma Institute of Child Advocacy and the Oklahoma Policy Institute (and with dozens of other nonprofits), our sector prioritized the Census in a big way – despite the Pandemic and all of the other GOVERNOR STITT WITH . That’s working OKLAHOMA COUNCIL ON challenges before us STEVE DILLINGHAM, NATIONAL AMERICAN ISLAMIC RELATIONS TOGETHER. With a voice that is to be DIRECTOR OF THE CENSUS counted. And heard.

Census data also informs throughout funding and services for healthcare, education, Oklahoma infrastructure and more! 2019-2020 ANNUAL REPORT OUR EXPERTISE 10 BECOMES YOUR EXPERTISE. When Angela Ybarra came to our offices for training, she was a huge presence. A big, beaming smile matched with a “let’s get to it” attitude – she became everyone’s new best friend within minutes. Ybarra is the executive director of Operation C.A.R.E., a nonprofit and ministry in Altus. Like many executives, Angela was new to her job and needed not only some professional development, but to create a network of friends and colleagues in the nonprofit world. She has gone way beyond the call of duty. Angela applied for a grant. With that grant, she took Standards for Excellence, participated in management and leadership curricula, learned about fundraising and governance and much, much more. But Angela isn’t just a well-trained professional. Today, she is THE local expert. She takes what she has learned and is the resource for other nonprofit leaders, volunteers and board members in Altus. Now she can work TOGETHER with other Altus nonprofits to share her expertise. “It’s one thing to have an executive director in our training room,” Janetta Cravens, Vice President of Programs, said. “It’s a whole different world when our executive directors then become the local sources for best practices. Angela takes that role seriously. That investment in professional development will help transform a community – starting with Operation C.A.R.E.

    2010 Annual Report 2010 Oklahoma City Community Foundation Annual Report | 1 2 | Introduction Our Vision The Oklahoma City Community Foundation values integrity, stewardship and collaboration. We strive to be enlightened leaders with a long-term perspective of community issues and opportunities, and we encourage and assist donors’ philanthropy for the benefit of the community. 2010 Oklahoma City Community Foundation Annual Report | 1 Dear Donors and Friends: The Oklahoma City Community Foundation values integrity, stewardship and collaboration. We strive to be enlightened leaders with a long-term perspective of community issues and opportunities, and we encourage and assist donors’ philanthropy for the benefit of the community. The last task of the 2009 Long Range Plan process was to write a new vision statement for the Oklahoma City Community Foundation. The statement above (and also on page 1) was adopted by the Trustees in February 2010. Throughout this annual report and in additional materials that you receive from us, you will see this theme of leadership with a long-term perspective. The endowment resources that we have been fortunate to develop through the years provide an opportunity to stay with community issues for as long as needed to make a difference. As long-term stewards of donors’ endowment gifts, we work to ensure that the donors’ intent is both respected and relevant. Education at all levels is of major importance in our country and in our state. Through our scholarship programs, counselor training workshops and literacy promotion efforts, we are making a significant contribution to increasing the capacity of individuals to improve themselves and become independent and productive citizens.
