✨ Spotlight on AWC Tulsa member Kat Eller Murray, whose innovative leadership of The Lemon-Aid Project earned recognition as Outstanding Volunteer Fundraiser from the Association of Financial Professionals - Eastern Oklahoma at their National Philanthropy Day conference.

The Lemon-Aid Project exemplifies the kind of creative community service that our AWC members champion. Under Kat's guidance, this citywide initiative empowers Tulsa's youngest philanthropists to run their own lemonade stands, teaching entrepreneurship while raising funds for neighbors in need. It's yet another example of how members are combining their professional skills with passionate service to strengthen our community.

Congratulations to Kat and all the young leaders making The Lemon-Aid Project such a success!

Join AWC Tulsa for our January luncheon featuring an inspiring story of purpose and impact!

Hear from Kelly Swan, whose chance encounter with a homeless man in downtown Tulsa while working at Williams Companies sparked a remarkable journey. That single moment led him to start Filling The Void, a nonprofit ministry that has served over 300,000 meals and earned national recognition for community service.
