Okie Hustle Next Up Fund Contest

Built by hustlers. Supporting hustlers. We set aside $5 from every completed job to help young local builders and entrepreneurs take their next step.

What This Fund Is For

The Next Up Fund Contest supports young local hustlers and entrepreneurs who are actively building something real. This is not a customer lead form and not a random giveaway. It is practical support for people who are putting in the work and need help taking the next step.

This program is local to our service area: Broken Arrow and nearby communities we actively serve, generally within about 30 miles (including Tulsa, Bixby, Jenks, Owasso, Catoosa, Coweta, Sapulpa, and surrounding areas).

Funds may be used for business essentials that directly help someone do more jobs, do better work, or operate more safely and professionally. Eligible uses include upgraded equipment, starter tool sets, replacement tools, trailers and loadout accessories, safety gear, software or admin essentials, business license fees, and quality used gear (including vetted pawn-shop purchases) that supports active day-to-day operations. The goal is practical growth, not extras.

$5 per completed job Quarterly awards Ages 16-25

How It Works

We track completed jobs each month and roll those dollars into the fund. Awards are generally made quarterly so recipients get meaningful support.

Current cycle: Tracking now
Award cadence: Quarterly
Next planned award: June 30, 2026

Contest cutoff: Contest applications close at least 14 days before each planned award date for review and verification.

Who can apply: Young local hustlers and entrepreneurs (ages 16-25) in our active service area who are building a real service, trade, or business.

Full rules: Read official Next Up Fund Rules.

Social feature: We plan to film winner announcements and grant handoffs for Facebook and TikTok so the community can see where the support goes. Winner videos may be delayed based on scheduling and production timing.

Submit a Contest Application or Nomination

You can apply for yourself or nominate someone else. Keep it real and specific. Tell us what they are building and exactly how this support would be used.

By submitting, you confirm information is truthful. This form sends a contest application/nomination (not a customer lead). Winners may be filmed during grant handoff for social media, and posting can be delayed. Under-18 recipients require parent/guardian consent for public features. Ownership may also make one discretionary wildcard pick from eligible entries each cycle.
