About Geoscience Foundation of Tulsa (GFT)

“The Geoscience Foundation of Tulsa has been formed to support the furtherance of the science of geology and related earth sciences, the practice of earth sciences as a profession and to promote the advancement of earth sciences in all phases through educational, scientific, and charitable activities.” Mission Statement Update as of July 2024: Here are some of the highlights of 2024: GFT sent five local high school students to both attend and present at GSA in Stillwater. These students are now going onto State and National competitions as well as attending field courses due to the connections and grants awarded at that GSA conference. These students will now compete in Washington DC and on to Stockholm, Sweden!! Our Teacher of the Year, Shannon Chatwin, of Owasso was named the National Educator of the Year and now has received an OERB Teacher of the Year award ($10,000) as well as a prestigious National Educator Award which she will accept in Washington DC in August. We had six scholarships granted last year ($1500/each) to students in the Geosciences from OU, OSU, and University of Arkansas. These students are now in internships all over the country primarily in oil and gas. GFT is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and all donations are fully tax deductible.
