At
Bounce Pro Inflatables, we feel that it is our privilege and our pleasure to give back to the community. We are honored to support several local foundations, and hope you might consider doing the same.
JDRF Tulsa is very dear to our heart, we will never forget the day our daughter was diagnosed with T1D. Not knowing what to do and scared, we were put in touch with JDRF and it was the greatest relief! First thing they do is send you a
Bag of Hope
The JDRF Bag of Hope is filled with useful resources for both the child who has been diagnosed with T1D and his or her caregivers.

Another organization we are excited to partner with is Gold4Kids.
Gold4Kids Cancer Foundation of Tulsa is a 501c3 organization serving northeast Oklahoma, dedicated to helping children fighting cancer and their families by raising funds for projects both lcoally and beyond. Their local projects focus on palliative care, symptom management, and psychological education, including school reintegration, for all pediatric oncology patients who are treated at our local clinic. The results of the local studies are helping kids not just here in Tulsa, but all over the United States. This year, they have been fortunate to be able to fund support groups and parent retreats put on by Families Fighting Childhood Cancer.
Gold4Kids was started by a group of parents, family, medical staff, friends, and members of the community who love these precious children. They have seen the devastating effects of childhood cancer and its treatment, and they want better treatments for the future. They look forward to the day when there is a cure for every child. They have also seen the joy and the hope in pediatric cancer patients’ eyes, and they know that that day will come. You can contact Gold4Kids, by clicking

Crisis Pregnancy Outreach is another amazing local organization. An unplanned pregnancy may leave you feeling trapped and hopeless. But the truth is, thousands of women in your situation have discovered their pregnancy was actually an opportunity in disguise. We can discuss your options with you, and we will support you in your choice.
Parenting.
Parenting a child may seem overwhelming, but it is a choice to consider. And at CPO, you won’t be alone. We will help you with a variety of free services including:
• Parenting classes covering attachment parenting, age-appropriate loving guidance and breastfeeding
• Assistance with childcare equipment and clothing
• Counseling with a licensed counselor
• Childbirth classes
• Doula (labor coach) services
• Compassionate mentoring
Open adoption.
Those who choose to make an open adoption plan do so because they love their baby so much, they are willing to live separately from him so the baby can have certain benefits that they are not in a position to provide. We believe in providing families for babies— not babies for families—and we can help you every step of the way, both before and after adoption. At CPO, you choose the family, and you can have as much or as little contact as you desire.
We work with potential adoptive families who:
• Are committed Christians
• Understand and embrace the concept of Open Adoption
• Have undergone a Home Study done by a Licensed Social Worker, in the state in which they reside
• Promise that one parent will be at home full-time, until the child is in at least Kindergarten
• Promise that they will have an open relationship with the birth mother.
• Have been married for no less than three (3) years
• Do not smoke
• Not only live in Oklahoma, but many other states as well
We have families waiting to adopt:
• Caucasian children
• African-American children
• Hispanic-American children
• Native-American children
• Children born with birth defects
• Children whose mothers have abused alcohol or drugs.
