The Superintendent’s Cup Golf Tournament
Friday, June 16, 2023

YP4Kids, a young professionals organization dedicated to investing in the lives of children, hosts a golf tournament in the early summer for Oklahoma City teachers with proceeds going to support teacher projects through Partners in Action/DonorsChoose and OKCPS Special Olympics. The Superintendent’s Cup Golf Tournament brings the OKC metro area community partners together to support Oklahoma City Public Schools Foundation, while enjoying time outdoors, interacting with the school systems leadership and networking. By providing support as a sponsor or signing up as a team, you are helping us bring awareness to the needs within Oklahoma City Public Schools and connecting our community with the strategic work happening at the Foundation.
