Our mission at the Oak Guild Institute (OGI) is to provide opportunities for people to think critically and learn collectively via loving dialogue, even on contested topics. And, via these opportunities, we aim to help inspire each other to make the world better.

The Oak Guild Institute (OGI) offers these opportunities through publishing podcasts and hosting thought-provoking salons. We are expanding our experiences online and offline and we want more people to be a part of the journey.

Membership is a tax-deductible donation thanks to our umbrella 501(c)(3) organization, Oak Grove Christian Ministries (https://www.ogcm.org). Note – OGI is not faith-based and we invite people of all beliefs to join.

We want to hear from you

Reach out if you have questions, feedback, suggestions, or want more information on how to get involved.

We are a non-profit organization with no full-time staff. Donations go directly to services such as hosting salons, maintaining communications, and creating podcasts. We have partnered with an umbrella 501(c)(3) organization (OGCM) to ensure anything you give is tax-deductible. Unlike OGCM, Oak Guild is not explicitly religiously affiliated, and we encourage people from all backgrounds and beliefs to join us. Besides money, there are other ways to help out. Please contact us if you want to volunteer.
