The Darryl & Julie Christner Family Foundation was founded in January of 2023 by Darryl Christner and his wife, Julie Christner.
Darryl is the former CFO and owner of family-owned and operated refrigerated trucking company John Christner Trucking. Darryl worked 30 plus years with both his dad, John, and brother, Danny, to provide quality refrigerated freight services, across the country, to produce generations of satisfied customers. From Darryl’s tenacity and drive, along with his dad, John, and brother, Danny, John Christner Trucking became one of the largest, family-owned trucking companies in the nation.
The same drive and ingenuity that brought Mr. Christner success in the business world remains strong to this day. Darryl created DJCFF to further his passion of building a strong community as well as promoting positive change that lasts for a lifetime.
We are open to any 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization applying for a scholarship grant from our Family Foundation. Those in service of Oklahoma’s mental health, addiction recovery, or education fields are especially invited to fill out our eligibility form.
