Services for Older Adults Grant Program

The Services for Older Adults Grant Program by the Oklahoma City Community Foundation supports organizations aiding older adults (65+) to live independently at home. It offers general operating support funding for initiatives focused on independent living, wellness services, and social activities. Grants are available to charitable organizations providing direct services to this demographic, ensuring they can maintain their quality of life and community engagement.

In 2011, the Oklahoma City Community Foundation launched the Community Grant program, made possible by generous donors who want to address our community’s most pressing needs. Since then, the program has expanded to include Access to Health Care, Services for Older Adults, Opportunities for Children and Culture and Community grants. Guidelines and eligibility criteria for each grant program are based on donor intent.
