A Tulsa foundation continuing Daniel Lee Christner’s legacy—supporting local nonprofits through service & shared impact. 🤝

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

A wish is so much more than a single day. 💙

It’s the anticipation. The people who make it possible. The hope that grows along the way. And the memories that remain long after the experience itself.

We love hearing from the people behind the mission at @makeawishok and being reminded that the journey of a wish can be just as meaningful as the wish itself.

We’re proud to support the work that makes these moments possible, and the people who bring them to life.

Behind every badge is a person.

One of the highlights of attending the Tulsa Police Foundation’s Fall Luncheon was getting an up-close look at the equipment, technology, and specialized units that help keep our community safe.

But what made the experience especially meaningful was the opportunity to connect with the officers themselves.

We spent time learning about their work, hearing their stories, and discovering some of the things we have in common.

One conversation even turned into a shared appreciation for motorcycles with an officer who enjoys riding and has built his own.

It’s moments like these that remind us how meaningful it is to connect beyond the uniform.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to support those who serve our community, and even more grateful for the opportunity to know them as people.

Today we joined the @tulsapolicefoundation for their annual Fall Luncheon and Officer Showcase.

We had the opportunity to meet members of several different units, learn more about the work they’re doing, and get a closer look at some of the tools and technology they use every day.

But more than anything, we got to meet the men behind the badge. To hear their stories, talk with them, laugh with them, and get to know a little more about who they are outside of the uniform.

Grateful for the opportunity to spend time with the people who serve our community and to continue learning how we can support the work happening right here in Tulsa.

A lot can change in a year.

When we first stood here, The Village was a plot of land and a vision for what could be.

Now, there are homes lining the sidewalks, front porches waiting to be lived on, and a community building taking shape at the center of it all.

Soon, these houses will become homes.

We’re grateful to have been part of this vision from the beginning and to watch it become something real.

And the best part is still ahead.

National Nonprofit Day

We believe the greatest impact happens when we work together.

Across Oklahoma, nonprofit organizations are showing up every day to feed families, support children, create pathways to recovery, care for veterans, strengthen communities, and meet people exactly where they are.

Our role is simple: find the people doing meaningful work and help them do more of it.

Today, on National Nonprofit Day, we’re celebrating the organizations we’ve had the privilege of standing alongside and the countless others doing the work, often long before anyone is watching.

Support them. Volunteer with them. Share their stories. Give when you can.

Because stronger nonprofits build stronger communities.

A wish changes a life.

Community helps carry it forward.

There’s something special about watching wish families laugh, connect, and simply enjoy an evening together. These moments matter, too.

“Recovery Done Different.”

It’s more than a slogan.

It’s the belief that lasting recovery is possible when people are surrounded by community, accountability, and hope.

Every life transformed creates a ripple that reaches families, workplaces, and neighborhoods.

That’s why we’re proud to support organizations like @hope_is_alive and invest in programs creating lasting change across Oklahoma.

A wish may last a day.

Community lasts much longer.

Last night, we joined @makeawishok as wish families gathered for an evening together at @teepeedriveinok .

Beyond the wishes themselves, events like these create something just as meaningful: a place where children and parents can connect with others who understand their journey.

We’re proud to support organizations that continue showing up long after a wish is granted.

A statistic can tell you something is working.

A story reminds you why it matters.

Last week, John Wayne reconnected with a friend from high school whose life has been transformed through his recovery journey at @hope_is_alive .

Hope Is Alive reports an 80%+ long-term sobriety rate among program graduates, but behind every number is a person, a family, and a future being rebuilt.

This is why we invest in organizations creating lasting impact across Oklahoma.

Today, we’re celebrating the fathers whose influence extends far beyond their own families.

The DLC Family Foundation was created to honor the legacy of Danny Christner, a father whose generosity and heart for others continue to shape this work today.

As that legacy carries forward through John Wayne Christner and the next generation, we’re reminded that the greatest gifts we leave behind aren’t things, but the values we pass on.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, grandfathers, and father figures making a lasting difference in the lives of those around them.
