Holiday Challenge
Also, the TCBA would love to recognize those doing pro bono work and volunteer work within our community. Our December issue of Tulsa Lawyer intends to include profiles of local pro bono service groups, and we need your help to make sure those working on the front lines get the attention they deserve for their efforts. If you know of an individual or a firm that deserves a little special recognition, please email me. Lastly, as mentioned last month, please remember to check the TCBA website often, as our TCBA staff continues to provide updates regarding COVID-19 information, Tulsa County Courthouse Administrative Orders, and Oklahoma Supreme Court Administrative Orders. We are here to serve in any way we can. If you have any questions or comments or believe there is anything we could be doing better, please do not hesitate to contact me at: kimberly.moore@laok.org, and thank you for taking part in TCBA. Kimberly K. Moore TCBA President, 2020-2021

2020 TCBA HOLIDAY CHALLENGE
The holidays are almost here!!! That means, please act now if you’d like to adopt a family for the 2020 TCBA Holiday Challenge!! It’s a great way to give back to the community and do some good with that holiday spirit. Many families in the Tulsa area are hungry, cold, and in dire need of gifts for their children. The good news is, we can do something to change that!
The process is simple and just like before. You can either choose to donate money, or you can choose to be matched with a specific family in need. Here’s how it works:
Cash: Send your tax deductible donations payable to TCBF and note “Holiday Challenge” on your payment. Cash donations will be accepted through December 4, 2020.
-or-
Act by Friday, Nov. 6th!
1. Select the family size that you or your team want to adopt and Family & Children’s Services will match your team with a family in need; 2. Submit your team’s information (names and contact information)andsizeoffamilyyouwishtoadopt via email to lizzie.riter@okdhs.org; 3. Once matched, you will be given a list of requested items from your adopted family. The items requested for your adopted family will need to be gift wrapped and dropped off to either TCBA or Family & Children’s Services in Tulsa by December 11, 2020; 4. Family & Children’s Services will distribute the gifts to your “adopted” family!
If you would like to adopt a family, please contact me, Lizzie Riter, by November 6th so we can start the matching process with Family & Children’s Services.
If you’d like to get involved in more than one way, please feel free to reach out to me at lizzie.riter@okdhs. org or by phone at (405) 982-3043 so I can give you information on how to get involved.
All 2020 sponsors will be recognized in the Tulsa LawyerMagazineasbeingtotallyawesomepeoplewith generoushearts(soletmeknowifyouwouldpreferyour donation remain anonymous). Let’s show our Tulsa area children in need that they are not forgotten. Please join us and let’s make the 2020 Holiday Challenge a huge success!
