Overview

Mission

The Good OKC was created to equip and empower the people of OKC to experience the Kingdom of God in the everyday lives. Far too often we seperate our spiritual lives from our actual life. We believe following Jesus is a 24/7 endeavor and is the key to an abundant life.

What it reported doing in 2025

The Good OKC believes that everyone deserves a second chance at life and that financial stability is a key piece to the restoration of our neighbors. So The Good will be taking over the operations of TBD Creatives. TBD Creatives will provide a training ground for our people to make candles, soaps, lotions, bath salts, upcycled clothing, and plant hangers. We hire employees that are people recovering from being unhoused, victimes of DV, differently-abled youth, kods aging out of foster care, or people transitioning out of incarceration. We dont focus on productivity and maximizing profits. We are purposely less efficient to create opportunities to teach soft skills, and get to know our new employees so that they know that they are why we exist and that they are loved. Should TBD Creatives have any remaining funds, such funds will go to support the missions of The Good OKC. About 33.3% of our work and funding will be dedicated to this mission.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 77% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
