Today, the INFORMS OU Student Chapter had an incredible opportunity to give back to the community by participating in OU’s Big Event 2024.

We spent our day at Citizens Caring for Children in Oklahoma City, where we engaged in various activities to support their mission. It was a day full of learning, giving, and connecting with others. We're proud to represent our chapter and university in making a positive impact in the community. A big thank you to everyone involved for making it such a rewarding experience!
