ABOUT US

The McBride Foundation strives to improve the health of active Oklahomans through sports injury awareness, especially in youth athletes. We fund grants, research, and provide education to programs across the state. Through the Preserve Education Program, we conduct seminars to teach youth athletes, parents, coaches and the community how to prevent injury.

 

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, formed in 2005 by a group of physicians led by Dr. Thomas Howard. Dr. Earl D. McBride, a pioneer in the field of orthopedics and arthritis care, believed in a life of service and began a legacy that continues today through the work of the McBride Foundation.
