Description

We have hosted our beloved Hands & Hearts fundraiser for more than 20 years – and wow, what a run it has been! Last year, we gave this longstanding event a refresh by transforming it into a weekend brunch. We’re excited to announce that we will continue this new format for our 2026 Hands & Hearts fundraiser! Mark your calendar and join our Hands & Hearts brunch on Saturday, February 28th at St. Thomas More University Parish and Student Center (100 Stinson St, Norman, OK).
