Winter Supplies Needed!

Without access to warm clothing, shelter, or proper nourishment, the dangers of frostbite, hypothermia, and other cold-related illnesses become very real threats.

Housing Solutions Street Outreach team works to ensure that homeless community members are equipped with the necessary supplies to navigate the cold safely. However, the success of this program heavily relies on the generosity and contributions from individuals like you.

Hope Playground at Whiteside Park, a new and inclusive adaptive playground and adaptive gender-neutr

The new adaptive playground at Whiteside Park located at 4009 S. Pittsburg Ave. in Tulsa, is more than wheelchair ramps and accessibility. The playground is designed with all users in mind and engages children and adults with a wide range of abilities. Well-designed playgrounds support the health and development of the whole child and the whole community. ACS Playground Adventures designed this all-inclusive playground with the help of community member voices sharing lived experiences, Tulsa Parks Department, and the Burnstein Family Foundation. The playground also features Tulsa's fist adaptive bathroom at a City park!

The Sanford and Irene Burnstein Family Foundation’s vision of an adaptive and inclusive playground has been a true partnership with City of Tulsa leaders and key community members. Mrs. Irene Burnstein and her late husband, Sanford (Stan), established their family foundation to share their success with families across Tulsa and Oklahoma.
“Stan and I had a vision that children of all ages and abilities could gather together to play, explore, and learn from one another. My family celebrates this vision today with the announcement of the plans for a playground that will bring joy and fun to so many,” stated Mrs. Irene Burnstein.

Dear Tulsans,

The Sanford & Irene Burnstein Family Foundation is dedicated to promoting an individual's highest potential through initiatives that enrich the community, support human services, promote social and racial justice, and are inclusive of all.

In honor of Juneteenth, the Foundation Trustees and staff stand with our neighbors and partners in creating a more vibrant and inclusive community. The Foundation is proud to support Juneteenth celebrations as fellow citizens gather in historic Greenwood or virtually to commemorate this important date and to proclaim that Black Lives Matter.

Through the Foundation’s work with community partners, innovation and inclusivity are key to breaking cycles of inequity. The Foundation stands in solidarity and side by side with all who seek to end discrimination, racism, bigotry, and injustice. Together, we will make Tulsa stronger and more vibrant for all of its citizens.

Stay safe during these challenging times.

Sincerely,

Sanford & Irene Burnstein Family Foundation Trustees and Staff
