Central Oklahoma Habitat Projects and Goals

All of our fundraising efforts are spent within the state of Oklahoma and do not get sent to our national office for their spending. Central Oklahoma 89ers Chapter welcomes any and all habitat spending proposals that are presented to the chapter. Over $100,000 spent in Oklahoma since inception in 2005!
Remember - Chapter spending is 100% of funds spent in Oklahoma!
