New Endowment to Support Leave No Child Behind Program
Oklahoma Disciple Men are working thru the Oklahoma Disciples Foundation to establish an endowment fund using the “Million Dollar Matching Fund” program of the Sam and Mary Howard Trust. Oklahoma Disciple Men propose to raise $10,000 in one year.
Leave No Child Behind offers scholarships for children and youth to lower the cost of participating in the Oklahoma Region’s Summer Camping Programs. The proposed endowment will be used to grow and accumulate funds for future use in the Leave No Child Behind program of Oklahoma Disciple Men.
In 2014, 248 youth were assisted at the rate of $40 per child. The goal is to be able to provide scholarships to as many children and youth as our camps can accommodate at 100% of camp cost.
John Gauldin, president of Oklahoma Disciples Men, is happy to visit with churches and individuals interested in participating in the program. Contact him by phone at 405-250-0903 or click here.
