The OG&E & Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits Community Town Hall: Convening Nonprofits & Community Leaders is a unique opportunity to bring nonprofits, civic leaders, and community partners together around a shared vision for rural Oklahoma’s future. At this gathering, we’ll focus on growing stronger together, investing in local leaders, building resilience, and ensuring every community has a voice in shaping what comes next. Our long-term vision is clear: to foster sustainable economic growth by strengthening workforce and infrastructure; to inspire civic leadership so residents can drive meaningful change; to build capacity through collaboration and resource-sharing; to close the gap between rural and urban Oklahoma by opening new doors of access; and, ultimately, to create communities where innovation thrives, opportunity is shared, and quality of life is lifted for all. As part of this effort, participants will also have access to free OKCNP memberships and new grant opportunities designed to fuel impact and support the vital work already happening in Canadian County. Date: Wednesday, January 21st Time: 9:00 a.m.-10:30 a.m. Location: Martin Luther King Center, 300 W Martin Luther King St, Muskogee, 74401 Cost: Free of charge Your Host: AMY CURRANChief Development Officer
