To improve adolescent sexual health by providing accurate information, increasing access to sexual healthcare, preventing teen pregnancy, and empowering young people in Oklahoma County.
Honestly Inc centers its giving on adolescent sexual health in Oklahoma County, with a stated aim to provide accurate information, increase access to sexual healthcare, prevent teen pregnancy, and support young people’s wellbeing. The grant record shows a locally focused funder that works through program subawards and partner implementation support rather than unrestricted philanthropy. Recent awards include $134,172 to Texas A&M in College Station and $72,000 to the Down Syndrome Association of Central Oklahoma in Oklahoma City, showing support for both out-of-state program subawards and local organizations tied to community services. The foundation’s recent activity also includes grantees connected to youth and family services, reproductive health, and community-based training. Oklahoma City organizations appear repeatedly across the grant list, including the Board of Regents of the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, Freedom Oklahoma Education Campaign, Latino Community Development Agency, and BNC Global. That mix suggests a funder using project-restricted grants to support implementation partners across health, education, and community settings while keeping most of its giving close to home.
A clear thread in Honestly Inc’s recent grants is reproductive and adolescent health work. The foundation gave $61,635 to the Board of Regents of the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center for a program subaward, placing a health-sciences institution inside its funding stream. It also awarded $20,000 to Sunbeam Family Services, another local organization tied to family support. Youth development and wellbeing appear alongside that health focus. The foundation gave $57,510 to Freedom Oklahoma Education Campaign and $34,686 to Freedom City in 2023, both in Oklahoma City. Community training and capacity building show up through grants to the Latino Community Development Agency for $61,875 and to Progressive Oklahoma Baptist State Convention for $71,999, indicating support for organizations that work through broader community networks. These grants are project-based and tied to implementation rather than general support.
Honestly Inc’s typical grant size sits at $20,000 at the 25th percentile, $32,500 at the median, and $55,098 at the 75th percentile. The foundation’s recent record includes repeated awards to the same recipients across years, including Texas A&M, Our Neighborhood Empowered Inc, Freedom Oklahoma Education Campaign, Board of Regents of Ouhsc, Down Syndrome Assoc, Latino Community Dev Agency, Progressive Ok Bapt State Conv, Bnc Global, and Pivot Inc. Its grants are labeled program subawards, project-restricted funding, and partner implementation support, which points to time-limited, project-based giving. The foundation also has a local geographic scope, with most grants staying in Oklahoma.
