    About Community Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma

    Community Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma Inc channels large-scale grantmaking into hunger relief across eastern Oklahoma, with 100% of its reported grants going to recipients in Oklahoma. The most visible pattern in the recent data is repeated support for local feeding organizations rather than one-off awards: Mary Martha Outreach in Bartlesville received two of the largest grants listed, $7,870,681 and $5,883,856, both described as assistance to the needy. That same pattern appears in Tulsa, where Catholic Charities Tulsa received grants of $4,462,846 and $3,495,457. The foundation’s grant list also shows support for a broad network of community-based food access groups, including Templo Cristiano, La Cosecha (the Harvest), Iron Gate, and Owasso Community Resources. Its stated work centers on sourcing and distributing nutritious food, partnering with community agencies, and advocating for equitable access to food. The organization also makes program-related investments, and its leadership is listed as Jeff Marlow.

    What Community Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma Funds

    The foundation’s grantmaking is tied closely to food access and emergency assistance. In 2024, it gave $1,699,136 to Templo Cristiano in Tulsa and $1,504,753 to La Cosecha (the Harvest), also in Tulsa, both listed as assistance to the needy. It also supported rural and suburban community food access through grants such as $1,449,052 to Owasso Community Resources and $1,437,689 to Iron Gate, each in Tulsa-area communities. Another thread is support for local ministries and community feeding sites, including $1,391,804 to Abundant Rain Ministries in Coweta and $1,030,238 to Northstar Storehouse in Pryor. Across these awards, the emphasis is on direct food support and basic-needs relief rather than a single narrow program model.

    How Community Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma Gives

    Typical grant size is moderate to substantial: the p25 is $13,668, the median is $47,576, and the p75 is $128,777. The recent list shows repeated awards to the same organizations in the same year, which points to ongoing relationship-based funding rather than isolated one-time gifts. That pattern is visible in multiple duplicate grants to local agencies across eastern Oklahoma. The organization is structured as a food bank and also makes program-related investments. Unsolicited participation is allowed in several active partner programs, including Feeding Partner Program, Mobile Pantry Program, Summer Feeding Program, and Feeding Partner Portal.
