AND LET ME PULL UP THE NONPROFITS THAT YOU ALL GRANT THESE AWARDS TO. THEY PROVIDE SERVICES THAT IMPACT FIVE AREAS HERE COMMUNITY, FAMILY, HEALTH AND WELLNESS, EDUCATION, ARTS AND CULTURE. SO TALK ABOUT JUST HOW CRITICAL THESE AWARDS ARE FOR THESE GROUPS. ABSOLUTELY. SO TYPICALLY WHENEVER SOMEBODY GIVES TO AN ORGANIZATION LIKE IF I GAVE $1,000 TO AN ORGANIZATION, THEN THEY CAN DO WHAT THEY WANT TO DO WITH IT. BUT WHEN WE GIVE $100,000, THEY CAN ACCOMPLISH A BIGGER MISSION. SO WE ENCOURAGE THEM TO DREAM BIGGER AND DO SOMETHING THAT THEY WOULDN’T BE ABLE TO DO OTHERWISE. THAT’S INCREDIBLE. IMPORTANT TO DREAM BIG. SO LET’S TALK ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING. WHAT CAN PEOPLE EXPECT TO LEARN DURING THAT MEETING? WHAT’S GOING TO GO ON DURING THAT? TYPICALLY THERE’S ABOUT 400 TO 500 PEOPLE AND THERE’S ALL DIFFERENT PEOPLE, ALL, ALL WALKS OF LIFE AND ALL THE DIFFERENT FINALISTS FROM THE DIFFERENT FOCUS AREA GROUPS. THEY GET UP AND GIVE THEIR PRESENTATIONS ON THEIR DREAM PROJECTS, TRYING TO WIN US OVER. SO THAT WE’LL VOTE FOR THEIR PROJECTS. TYPICALLY, LATELY, WE’VE BEEN ABLE TO GIVE AWAY $200,000 GRANTS. UM, AND THE MORE MEMBERS THAT WE HAVE, THE MORE MONEY WE CAN GIVE AWAY. THAT’S AMAZING TO HEAR. 200 THAT $200,000 GRANT. AND I DO WANT TO ASK HOW CAN OKLAHOMANS WHO ARE AT HOME RIGHT NOW, HOW CAN THEY HELP YOU ALL WITH YOUR MISSION AND CONTINUING IT? ABSOLUTELY.
