Welcome to The Hardesty Family Foundation, Inc. website.  The Foundation was established to benefit specific needs of the people of Tulsa, Oklahoma and the surrounding areas.  As native Oklahomans, we feel an obligation to give back to the people of our State and to make the future a better place for all whom choose to call Oklahoma home.

The grants program is intended to address a broad spectrum of issues and problems. It provides support for nonprofit organizations involved in a wide variety of charitable purposes including libraries, primary, secondary & university education, medical research, aviation, health & human services, arts & culture, civic & community and nature & wildlife.  The percentage of available funds to these areas of interest is reallocated from time to time, according to the current priorities established by the Directors.
