PSO, Tulsa Shock & The Salvation Army Form Team To Help Families
Earlier this week, while it was close to 100 degrees
outside, the air-conditioning unit in my car broke. It was awful!
I had to get it fixed quickly because I drive my two young kids around Tulsa everyday. It must be really difficult to sit in a home right now without an air-conditioning unit or a fan to stay cool. But this is the reality for some families who struggle financially.
A unique
partnership between Public Service Company of Oklahoma (PSO), the Tulsa Shock
and the Salvation Army will help these families. The group is working together
to raise funds for PSO’s Light A Life Energy Fund, which is administered by the
Salvation Army. Light A Life provides emergency funds for those who need help
paying their energy bills. PSO and the
Salvation Army formed this program back in 1986.
In addition, Three Tulsa
Shock games in July will be dedicated to raising funds for Light A Life. A few
fun surprises and events are planned for Shock fans during the games on the 19th,
21st and 25th. The funds raised will be used throughout
the year to help those needing assistance with their energy bills.

PSO continues to be a community
leader when it comes to helping neighbors. Without PSO’s support, it would be
difficult for the Salvation Army to assist as many families. The Tulsa Shock is
also showing loyalty towards its city by reaching out to help thousands of kids
and families. We appreciate having three
Shock games to promote our mission.
It’s
comforting to see so many people working to improve metro Tulsa!

Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this site. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s challenging to get that perfect balance between usability and visual appearance.
