In April of 2014 I attended a Joy In The Cause fundraiser. Wow! I was so touched that I became a volunteer. Over the years I have served in different areas with Joy In The Cause and have been so blessed. What an amazing caring organization. They have reached so many hurting families and have brought joy when it’s hard to find Joy. I have spent time watching football with a gentleman in his last days when he had no one. What an honor. I have had the opportunity to give out care packages to cancer patients and bless so many families who faced a long journey in healing or coming to peace with only a few months or weeks to live.
At one point my own family was in a life changing journey. My son had to have his colon taken out. He was only 32 with a wife and 4 kids. I suddenly became one of the people they cared about.
There are backpacks that go in the first responders vehicle. Sometimes this is the only thing the kids have to take to a temporary place because life happens and parents don’t care or maybe that parent has had their own struggles.
We have fixed up rooms in a Woman’s shelter where the women come sometimes with nothing but themselves and their children.
I have seen volunteers and the leaders give their time, their love and their money over and over.
The founders and the board are very well respected and also volunteer many many hours.
I’m honored to be a volunteer for this 5 star non-profit.

This is the absolutely best organization I have ever been part of. This is the kindest, most focused, hardworking, sharing, caring and loving group of people I have volunteered for in my 20 years of community service. The focus of this organization is not on any one cause but they consider any cause that needs their help. They work with very little equipment/supplies and can always use donations. I became a volunteer after seeing them in action in a treatment room full of cancer patients. They energized that room full of patients!! But they work with many organizations and individual needs. They are an amazing non-profit to be part of and I am so thankful to be able to do so much community service through my association with them.

This is the most amazing group of people. Have been there for me and so many others. Lisa is truly the real deal.

i first met Joy in the cause at a Fundraiser at BlueStone Steakhouse. i was very impressed and loved the reason for the fundraiser. I listened to Lisas story and i can sympathize with Lisa. My mother died from brain cancer, and i have a son who, at the age of 17 had accident and is now handicap from a brain injury. Joy in the Cause is a very worthy cause and I will support it as long asI can.

There are many things to consider when deciding where to volunteer your time.
I have have spent the past two plus years working with Joy in the Cause. This group has boundless energy, compassion and love for our community and beyond. Our leader, Lisa Bain, continues a quest to provide joy, support and love wherever and whenever needed. This group of loving people has brought joy and comfort to the sick and dying. Toys and better living conditions to mothers and children. Comfort backpacks to emergency personnel.
Comfort and support to families that have lost loved ones.

I feel blessed to share my talents and time with Joy in the Cause.

Joy in the Cause has made a powerful and positive impact on the Rosa Parks Elementary community. The JITC team have generously given time and resources to make community events fun and memorable. Additionally, the team's facilitation of in-school and after school opportunities for students to give back to the community have helped increase students' awareness of collective impact and the importance of community engagement for all.

Joy In The Cause is more than just a nonprofit. It's a group of Individuals who are truly making a difference for families and patients in Oklahoma needing assistance during tough times. Thank you, to all who donate to this nonprofit - your donations end up helping various individuals all over Oklahoma. For example young families who have young children losing a parent to cancer, folks going through the unknown during chemo treatments, unique transportation solutions for patients like myself unable to ride in a normal assisted transportation vehicle. Volunteers who go beyond the expected to find solutions for patients needing help in difficult situations. They do this with JOY. It's an amazing nonprofit, and if I had the health to volunteer, then I certainly would because they are honestly bringing joy to families in difficult times. The help they provide does not remove grief, but it does provide a joyful memory, and possibly a unique solution to a unique need. Thanks to Joy In The Cause for ALL you do! Thanks to all the volunteers and businesses who contribute funds to this great ( agency) community of volunteers making special (joyful) things happen in tough (painful) times. When a day ends, it is gone forever, but it leaves something behind - Joy In the Cause is leaving joy and goodness behind in a vast number of lives.

I can’t say enough words to tell the gratitude I feel from the amazing team and people from Joy in the Cause! From the start they have always been there and been so helpful where I couldn’t personally do things myself for my little one. Lisa is one of a kind. Skipper is just as amazing and the whole crew deserve more than I could ever give back to them ! PLEASE if you can help donate time, money or resources help out this place, hands down best charity in the world! I love Lisa Bain and she brings more JOY to a world that desperately needs it

Joy in the Cause’s program Joy to the Rescue: Project Kids in Crisis has single-handedly helped local first responders especially law enforcement help reach out to children, teens, and young adults during traumatic situations. As a Police Officer with the Bixby Police Department, I have had the opportunity to personally hand the Joy in the Cause backpacks to young children during horrible situations. Those backpacks are filled with essential items along goodies to make any kid smile, like their very own Mavis Pearl stuffed doggie. Joy in the Cause are experts in knowing how to reach into people’s lives during dire times and bring smiles and joy back to their lives.

Joy in the Cause has truly changed my life in so many ways. A few months back, I had the opportunity to go with Lisa Bain on a hope visit. We spent several hours at the cancer treatment facility loving on chemo patients and bringing hope to them on a very dark day. The saying it is better to give than receive couldn't be more true. Meeting those precious people and watching their faces light up as we gifted them Mavis Pearl dogs and quilts that had been prayed over was truly remarkable. I left feeling so full of joy knowing that I had just been a part of something life-changing for those people. Joy in the Cause is like no other charity I have ever been a part of. This organization brings hope and love to so many people in their most desperate times of need. I cannot say enough about what I have seen first-hand and how they change so many lives just by showing up with a smile and a gift bag or backpack. My husband is a police officer and he has had the opportunity to gift children a backpack when they needed it most. Being in law enforcement, he sees terrible things and so do I as a news reporter. We often meet people on the worst day of their life and so do volunteers with Joy in the Cause. In a hurting world, they are making such a difference and I cannot say enough about Lisa and Mavis and everyone at Joy in the Cause. I now proudly serve on the board of directors for this organization and I would recommend it to anyone.

It has been my privilege to volunteer for this organization for approximately four years now. I have never known a more compassionate, caring group of individuals dedicated to helping those in need. I am both proud and humbled by the love and devotion of the volunteers. Furthermore, I have seen the results their generosity on the faces of the recipients that have benefited from the care packages they have received.I am truly blessed to be a small part of such an organization.

Joy in the Cause is a great nonprofit to work with. The organization helps many people in the community. The dog Mavis Pearl is so cute and brings joy to all who receive one.

I have been involved with Joy in the cause from its inception, and There aren’t enough stars on a rating board to do it justice! My name is Lisa Ramsey, and I run a local ovarian cancer support group in the Tulsa Area. Lisa Bain has dedicated her life to helping other people aid while dealing with crisis in their lives. Whether it is a life altering illness, adult cancers, children’s cancers, children in crisis, honoring our troups, or assisting families in hospice situations. Joy in the cause is there to help.
It is the one of the best organized and well
Managed charitable organization I’ve ever seen! Lisa has an army of wonderful, caring people I’ve ever had the pleasure to know. This world is a much better place since Joy in the Cause was established and I’m blessed to be a small part of it! I rate it a million stars!

Joy in the Cause is an amazing group that helps so many people! Backpacks for kids in crisis, hospice visits, hospital visits...whatever is needed, they do with joy! My work has volunteered, and I have seen the impact they make on the lives they touch. I believe in their mission so much, my kids and I volunteer as much as we can. Love Joy in the Cause for everything they do and the love they do it with.

I had just moved up from Dallas and was looking for a place to give my time and in a blessing of events, I found Joy In The Cause. The first night I went to their sowing room, I was welcomed by everyone there. I learned more about their organization and all they they did for this new community I just joined. Some days it was hard to make it to the evening events but when I pushed myself to go and serve others, I in turn always reserved an abundance of joy in evrything we did. I have now joined a few other groups withing Joy In The Cause and I am always amazed to what lengths the team will go to make sure the city's needs are met. I can't wait to give more of my time to help this great cause, Joy In The Cause.
