U R Special

Welcome

Our Mission

U R Special Ministries, Inc. exists to foster self-esteem and healthy lifestyles in needy and at-risk children. We do so by providing new, one-of-a-kind outfits of clothing for the children of Edmond, Oklahoma, and distributing it to them in ways that are celebratory, interactive, and affirming.

Although the founders and principals of U R Special Ministries, Inc. are Christians, we offer our service and love to the children and families in our community without regard to religion, race, or ethnic background.

BACK-TO-SCHOOL WELCOMES RECORD NUMBER: 806!

Wow, what a great weekend we had on August 14 and 15! The weather was mild, the kids were happy and excited about the start of school, and U R Special was thrilled to clothe a record 806 of Edmond's boys and girls head-to-toe with all-new back-to-school outfits.

Thank you to all our wonderful volunteers who made it possible.

August was a great month for another reason: we had a super Baskets 'n Bonnets fund-raising event honoring co-founder Claudette Dills. With dinner, sponsors, and a silent auction, the evening netted us over $26,000, which is wonderful and just in time, considering the 100+ extra children we are serving this year. Thanks to the Dills family for organizing this annual event and to all their host of helpers who made it a fun and productive evening.
