Pokes With A Purpose (PWAP) exists to create and develop name/image/likeness (NIL) opportunities for all Oklahoma State University student-athletes. PWAP partners with various Oklahoma non-profit organizations and corporate brands to give Oklahoma State student-athletes the opportunity to showcase their community service efforts as well as leverage individual NIL opportunities to promote their personal growth and financial stability.
As a 501(c)3 entity, donors may realize a tax-deductible donation while supporting student-athletes through PWAP. Donors should always consult a tax advisor before making a donation. And while PWAP is not an entity of Oklahoma State University, we work exclusively to help shape the future of Cowboy and Cowgirl athletes through NIL.

FAQ
NIL stands for Name, Image and Likeness. As of July 1, 2021, after the SCOTUS decision supporting a lower court’s ruling, the NCAA enacted their interim NIL policy. This allows college athletes the ability to earn compensation, endorsements, and sponsorships on various platforms using their name, image, and likeness. The money generated on compliant NIL sites, like PWAP, directly helps student athletes and allows the program to remain competitive in this new world of collegiate sports.
PWAP offers OSU student athletes opportunities to engage in NIL activations, including working for various charitable organizations and charitable events, as well as leading sports camps and clinics, doing social media marketing and promotions, autograph signings, clinics, making special appearances, and more.
