Each year, the club provides scholarships to deserving Oklahoma students who demonstrate financial need, academic potential, and a commitment to achieving their educational goals.

Jim Hampton is the chair of this important committee, and we are proud that we recently gave 23 scholarships worth $5,000 each. To date, we have given over $1.9 million in scholarships to deserving seniors. Our club recognizes and appreciates the Oklahoma City Community Foundation who administers this important program on behalf of the Rotary Club of West Oklahoma City.
