Fashion Meets Philanthropy: The Style Report & Goodwill OKC
KOKH’s “The Style Report” is more than just a segment on fashion and trends; it’s a dedicated look at how style can inspire confidence and drive significant community impact right here in Central Oklahoma. Sponsored by Oklahoma Central Goodwill, this weekly feature highlights the powerful connection between what we wear and how we empower local lives.
The Style Report: Where Fashion Makes a Difference
Hosted by Alexis Young, “The Style Report” airs every Monday, delving into the latest fashion trends while underscoring Goodwill’s mission. The show emphasizes that shopping and donating at Goodwill doesn’t just refresh your wardrobe; it directly transforms lives by reinvesting every dollar into Goodwill employees. This support helps individuals living with disabilities or those recently incarcerated gain vital job experience, access better resources, and build brighter futures.
Goodwill Central Oklahoma: Empowering Our Community
Since 1936, Goodwill Central Oklahoma has been a cornerstone of workforce development, committed to enhancing dignity and quality of life for Oklahomans. As a 100% local, non-profit organization, its efforts are entirely funded by donations and sales from its 26 retail stores and 16 attended donation centers across the Oklahoma City metro area. Their dedication to job training and employment programs exemplifies a sustainable model for community upliftment.
The impact of supporting Goodwill extends beyond employment. It promotes sustainability by giving items a second life, reduces waste, and fosters a more inclusive local economy. Every purchase or donation directly contributes to this cycle of empowerment.

The Upcoming Opportunity Center
Central Oklahomans can look forward to a significant new resource hub opening its doors this March or April: the Opportunity Center.
