01What it does

What Tulsa Technology Center Education Foundation Inc does

Mission

To provide for financial needs not feasibly funded by tax dollars. By making grants and/or emergency loans, the foundation provides assistance to students in programs which require long term study and in programs of study which are too short in length to qualify for federal student aid.these grants and emergency loans enable students to continue their education by providing financial assistance for special needs such as those generated by transportation problems, personal or family illness and living expenses incurred as a result of going to school.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Program

  1. The tulsa technology education foundation (ttef), a non-profit founded in 1983, provides needs-based grants up to 350 for tulsa tech students requesting assistance with out-of-pocket items such as uniforms, shoes, equipment/tools, testing and certification, tuition, and competitions (expenses not typically covered by other financial aid). Ttef is comprised of only volunteers (no salaried staff), which helps ttef achieve results of over 97% of every dollar going to support tulsa tech students financially. Most of our board of trustees are former tulsa tech teachers and/or students, helping students complete their tulsa tech programs to become more employable, productive adults.
