Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma · FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
School Clothing Allowance Program
A $300 VISA card per enrolled Kickapoo student, Head Start or Pre-K through 12th grade, loaded once per program year for school clothing, shoes and uniforms only — no school supplies, backpacks or online shopping. The 2026–2027 program runs July 20 to September 28, 2026. Cards are mailed and reused year to year; receipts must be turned in by the following March 31 for audit, after which any remaining balance returns to the tribe. A student reported as not attending school has the card suspended for the rest of the year.
Who's eligible
Tribal Citizens Only
The 2026–2027 guidelines (revised 7/15/26) require that the student be enrolled with the Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma; the applying parent or guardian be the custodial parent, legal guardian, foster parent or caseworker; and the student be 3 or older and enrolled in Head Start or Pre-K through 12th grade when the application is received. Head Start applicants must provide a copy of the program's prekindergarten license. A copy of each student's updated CDIB (issued 2023 or later with a five-year expiration) is required, and adults with custody of Kickapoo children need current court or DHS documents. One request per student per fiscal year.
