Miki Farris - Infant Crisis Services
Miki Farris is a founder and currently serves as the executive director of Infant Crisis Services. 37 years ago, Miki and her Sunday school class at Westminster Presbyterian Church needed a service project and decided they wanted to make a difference in their community. Little did Miki know that her childhood and early adult life would inform her passion to help mothers, fathers, and babies in crisis as a career.
Infant Crisis Services’ mission is to provide life-sustaining food, formula, and diapers to infants and toddlers in crisis. The organization is entirely privately funded and hosts events throughout the year to supplement individual and corporate donors and foundation grants. Their biggest event of the year, Boots and Ball Gowns, which many of you may have attended gets voted one of the best non-profit events in Oklahoma City year after year.
Miki is an Oklahoma State University graduate, sustainer in the Junior League of Oklahoma City, board member and past president of the Alumni Board of Leadership OKC, member of the Kiwanis Club of OKC, member of Kappa Kappa Gamma Alumni, and an active member of the United Methodist Church of the Servant. She is married to Jim Farris and has three daughters and one son: Jacquelyn, Abbey, Ally, and Josh.
