The Inasmuch Foundation has announced the distribution of $2.4 million in grants to 25 organizations serving Oklahoma communities, including $25,000 for the Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits towards their Standards for Excellence, and other programs.
Founded by Edith Kinney Gaylord in 1982, the foundation supports education, health and human services and community enhancement initiatives that enrich the quality of life for Oklahomans.
In June, the Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits accepted a donation from Chesapeake Energy Corporation of a northwest Oklahoma City office strip mall housing dozens of nonprofit agencies. Marnie Taylor, the center’s president and chief executive officer, stated that the donation was one of the most significant gifts in the organization’s history.
The Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits has been a Standards for Excellence Replication Partner since 2006, and offers training, consulting, advocacy, membership, networking and recognition for the nonprofit sector of Oklahoma.
