Help students see themselves in Oklahoma’s story and its future.
The Oklahoma Hall of Fame Teen Board is raising $12,000 between September 16 and December 31, 2025 to provide free field trips for classrooms across Oklahoma. These field trips open doors for students to experience Oklahoma's people, arts, and culture, and to see themselves as part of Oklahoma’s story and future.
Why Give?
Every student should be able to connect with their community and heritage. Free field trips remove barriers like cost and distance, making it possible for classrooms across the state to experience Oklahoma’s history, arts, and culture firsthand.
