For over 20 years, the MIGHT Community Development and resource center has been developing and implementing programs that provide stabilizing and self-growth opportunities for Lawton Fort Sill’s most vulnerable citizens.

From our leadership to our board, to our staff, we have an incredible team at MIGHT. But we haven't done any of this alone. So many wonderful community partners and friends have walked alongside us on this journey.

We are excited to invite you to join those who make it all happen and partner with us for “A Summer Night with MIGHT”, our yearly celebration and fundraising gala coming up on August 21. We simply cannot share the mission and message of MIGHT and gain support for our life-changing programs in this important way without you.

TOGETHER, we are the answer!

Become a sponsor or donor today and join us in the business of shaping and changing lives. Then join us on gala night for a powerful evening of community, connection, inspiration and hope.

TOGETHER, we are making Lawton Fort Sill stronger for EVERYONE.
