up to $5,000 for a possible total fund increase of $10,000.

Festival Fund.
OCTA ENDOWMENT
The interest from this Fund helps
provide a healthy financial status for OCTA operations. In 1986, the Board of Directors and President
Mary Patterson determined that it was in the best interest of our organization
to set up a permanent endowment fund.
The principle remains in the OCCF, but interest is provided annually.
LIL WILLIAMS FESTIVAL FUND
The interest from this fund is
divided among the theatres participating in OCTAFest,
to help offset expenses of their participation. It was established in 2000 to honor an OCTA
Founder, Lil Williams of Ardmore, an avid supporter of OCTAFest.
