AWOO Association

The AWOO Association is a small collective of furries and non-furries that host social and fundraising events in the Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA area. The "AWOO" in AWOO Association is an acronym, standing for: Anthro West Open Organization. In late 2020, the group became officially incorporated as an Oklahoma state non-profit organization - making the group name officially Anthro West Open Organization, Inc. The group now has a Board of Directors and Organizational Officers to oversee the group's operations henceforth.

In early 2021, the AWOO Association became a federally-recognized 501c3 public charity organization.

The group's main purpose for existing is to host fun and safe local and online fundraising events for furs and non furs alike to come together and support a charity.
