As a volunteer organization, we strive to provide funds to the organizations that serve children who are victims of abuse, neglect or poverty and are considered at-risk within the community. We also strive to provide individuals and corporations the opportunity to help children of all ages within the community. By providing necessities, financial support and opportunities, Oil Patch Kids will continue changing lives and giving hope to the youth of our community.
