Shavon Annette
Executive Director
Community Centered Innovation
Born and raised in Bartlesville, Shavon Annette’s journey with the Westside Community Center (WCC) began as a youth attending its programs—where she first discovered the power of community engagement. Today, she serves as the Executive Director, bringing full circle a deep, personal commitment to uplifting the next generation.
Shavon’s career is marked by expertise in strategic planning, stakeholder engagement, and innovative program development. She has a unique talent for identifying collaboration opportunities and forging partnerships that benefit the entire community.
Under her visionary leadership, WCC has transformed from financial instability to a thriving, sustainable organization. Her focus on financial stewardship has restored trust and confidence, introducing strict financial oversight while creating a roadmap for long-term sustainability.
Shavon is reimagining WCC’s former initiatives to empower individuals of all ages, from youth to seniors, through education, mentorship, and workforce development. Whether implementing STEAM programs or cultivating YouthPreneur entrepreneurship workshops for students, she consistently creates innovative programs that address the diverse needs of Bartlesville’s multicultural population.
One of her most inspiring initiatives is the Intergenerational Community Garden, where youth, adults, and senior citizens will come together to learn about horticulture, sustainability, and community. This initiative fosters collaboration between generations, enabling participants to engage in the planning, construction, planting, and maintenance of the garden—a powerful program that strengthens community bonds while promoting environmental stewardship.
Driven by integrity and a deep love for her community, Shavon is passionate about ensuring that WCC remains a beacon of hope and opportunity. She and her husband reside in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where they continue to champion causes that enrich lives and build stronger communities.
Under her leadership, WCC is poised for continued growth—serving as an inspiring example of what can be achieved through collaboration, education, and unwavering dedication.
