The Foundation for South Oklahoma City has adopted the initiative SHINE - Start Helping Impacted Neighborhoods Everywhere.

SHINE's goal is to assist schools, parks and neighborhoods with projects that will make a lasting improvement. This program will facilitate building a stronger and more well rounded community by bringing together the many facets of a community such as schools, students, non-profits, government and citizens. Through this initiative we will:

• Improve Economic Development
• Prepare future generations to be responsible citizens
• Efficiently utilize and expose resources through community partnerships
• Create an overall safer, cleaner and nicer place to live.
