Upward Transitions Wins BOK Financial’s Guide the Giving Grand Prize of $10,000

Our wonderful friends at BOK Financial surprised us with this year’s $10,000 grand prize win of their Guide the Giving program grant!
We’d like to say a special “thank you” to LaNeka Wilson, Vonnie Garner, Brooke Martin, and Greg Wheeler for coming in person to give us the news with a giant check and a big balloon bouquet!
BOK Financial’s Guide the Giving program is an annual corporate wide program held in each market. Employees get the chance to nominate their favorite nonprofit and then solicit votes from their peers. The winning nonprofit in each market receives $10,000! In addition, five $5000 runners up are announced with a total of $125,000 being distributed throughout the footprint. Employees here in OKC at Bank of Oklahoma chose Upward Transitions as the grand prize winner!
