OUR Mission
Welcome! We are a faith-based organization sponsored through Southwestern Oklahoma State University's School of Nursing. Our organization is Nurses Christian Fellowship (NCF). Every month we choose an association to focus on either raising awareness or donating our time and resources to. This month we have chosen Kids in Care Resources and will be hosting a 5K to benefit the organization.
​
What we hope to accomplish through this event is to bring awareness to the need of basic essentials in some foster homes, as well as donate proceeds made to the Kids in Care Resources organization. Having to buy high priced items unexpectedly can cause a great amount of stress on foster families. The biggest needs right now are mattresses and carseats. Through this fundraiser, we hope to donate all needed items and more!
*Deadline to register and receive t-shirt is March 27th*
NOTE: Participants are able to register up until the day of the race. Late registrations will be held at 8:00 A.M. at Rader Park. There will be an additional $5.00 fee for late registration. T-shirts will be available to order until March 27th.
