Grants & Fundraising
Special thanks!
-
Oklahoma Historical Society
For several years we have been the recipient of the Oklahoma Heritage Preservation Grant Program.
The first year we secured a historic monument which was placed in front of our building. This monument shows the significance of the building and provides tourists a bit of information about our organization.
The second grant we received helped us with marketing by providing funds for website development, promotional videos, social media help and other tools to promote our organization.
The third grant was to help us document and archive the many artifacts we are beginning to accumulate for the future hospital museum. We were able to purchase computer equipment and nationally recognized museum software. We labeled and logged hundreds of artifacts that will some day be displayed at the museum.
