What is the K/H Financial Back a Teacher™ Program?
The program was implemented to not only support our Enid Public School educators in their classrooms but also to raise awareness of this critical need in our community. The program has one simple goal: “To provide educators making a difference in student’s lives with at least some of the resources needed to fund projects in their classrooms.”

How Does Back a Teacher™ Work?
It’s simple! Any EPS teacher who would like to be considered just needs to apply online at kh.financial under the “Community” tab or fill out the paper form in the brochure and return it to us. Each month (August through April) our committee meets to evaluate each entry and makes their selection for the award. The recipient selected each month is awarded $250 toward his or her classroom.

Why Was Back a Teacher™ Created?
Supporting education isn’t just a buzzword or lip service for our company… we’re passionate about it! We created and implemented the BAT program for an obvious reason (teachers and classrooms are terribly underfunded) but also for other not-so-obvious reasons. Keith Holsten, owner at K/H Financial, benefited as did most all of us from several great teachers that were there at the right time and place in his life. Growing up through several difficult circumstances, there were many opportunities for failure; but at every corner or fork in the road, there was a great teacher there to
encourage, educate, and counsel. “If it weren’t for a few key teachers in my life at the right time and place, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”

The BAT program is our organized and
philanthropic mission, and it is our desire to
continue to build on where we are now toward the future.
