The devastating Oklahoma tornado that has ravaged the area is taking a tremendous toll. That means a tremendous effort is needed to help the people in the Sooner State. Leading the effort is the region’s iconic sports program. The Oklahoma Sooners official athletic website leads with information to donate to the Red Cross, something another Oklahoma sports iconic, Kevin Durant, has already generously done.
The best way to help Oklahoma disaster victims is to text REDCROSS to 90999 to give $10 or go online at http://t.co/C0MvTuqMGi
