Tulsa Women Doing Good

Organization to Award Local Grant

Tulsa Women Doing Good is a collective of women who believe in the power of working together to help others. They empower Tulsa women leaders in making connections while also doing good in the community. They help each others grow professionally and personally while serving the Northeastern Oklahoma area.

Members pool their time and money and decide together as a giving circle where the funds should be awarded. Their efforts, discussions, and combined gifts transform into community power, proactive change, and civic action. Their first gift in March 2023 of $6,200 was presented to Tulsa’s Resonance Center for Women which provides a special place for women and their children who have been impacted by the criminal justice system or substance abuse to assist them in creating a new life for themselves.

A Passion for Philanthropy

Tulsa Women Doing Good is comprised of over 150 local women who share a passion for philanthropy and contribute not only financially, but also by raising awareness, volunteering, and serving on boards. Quarterly member contributions are pooled, and as a group, we determine which organization or initiative will receive our semi-annual contribution. Beyond our charitable contribution, we gather to network, learn, and engage with each other.
