Oklahoma City residents came together at Classen Curve, Nichols Hills Plaza, and Triangle to perform 250 acts of service supporting local nonprofits as part of a national movement celebrating America’s 250th birthday.
Community Support
Throughout the afternoon, participants engaged in various acts of kindness, including filling a family’s pantry, helping pets in need, supporting children during difficult times, and aiding survivors of domestic abuse.
Palomar, a nonprofit organization focused on supporting survivors of domestic abuse, joined the event to raise awareness about its mission. “We also just want to raise awareness that Palomar exists, survivors exist, that there’s a mission that exists in our city and building as many hands as possible, even if that’s just knowing about us,” said Vasilia Boyaci, engagement assistant at Palomar.
The event encouraged attendees to give what they could, emphasizing the impact of collective kindness in supporting those in need.
