Hello everyone!  My daughter's Girl Scout troop is participating in the  Cleveland County CROP Walk ! Proceeds from this event go to support the hunger fighting and relief efforts of Church World Service in 80 countries and to our local Food & Shelter. Please visit this link and donate to this great cause!  What difference do your donations make? Funds raised in a CROP Hunger Walk assist people in need around the world.   For example: $75 can enable three women to attend a literacy class for a year and change their lives forever.  $110 can provide emergency food supplies for a family of five’s needs for a month.  $140 can give a struggling farm family a new source of income: a pair of pigs. A piglet from each litter is then given to another family in need.  $350 can enable the eldest in a child-headed household of AIDS orphans to receive vocational training, so they can...

After tragic fires, like the ones that we have seen in central Oklahoma the past few days, there are many things that are in short supply. In the Norman/ Slaughterville, Oklahoma area alone 100 homes have already been devastated by the wildfire. And that is just one of many of the fires that are burning their way through our state.

Donations of this type can be delivered to the Slaughterville Fire Department at 10701 US HWY 77, Lexington, OK 73051 or the Luther High School Activity Center (just...

We  O klahomans are a pretty tough bunch.  We've dealt with terrorist bombings, tornadoes, hail the size of softballs, weird earthquakes, fires, and even earthquakes and tornadoes at the same time, and we get through it because we are always there to lend our neighbors a helping hand.  We don't have to be told to, it's just a part of who we are.  This phenomenon of Oklahomans coming together in times of distress is something the Oklahoma media coined as the "Oklahoma Standard."  It's that goodhearted, friendly, neighborly spirit that we have inside of us that tells us to help when we are needed.  It makes us go above and beyond just making a small donation and actually go help our neighbors rebuild their homes after a tornado hits. It's that thing inside of you that tells you to treat this stranger in need like you would your own family, not because you have to, but because you want to... Or at least that's what it's al...
