Don't forget it's food drive season and we have plenty of bags to share with everyone!
Collection has started off pretty slow but I know our members will make up for it this month 🙏

In case you haven't seen, bags are out and waiting to be picked up and filled for the annual Don and Sandy Kirtley Memorial Food Drive. And I have plenty more bags to refill as needed so don't be shy about taking as many as you want 😊Thanksgiving will be here before we know it and we know many families are struggling right now. Let's help give the people in our community something to be thankful for 🙏
We will begin posting the inventory spreadsheet soon. For now, here is a copy of our item list if you want to shop from that.
Thank you all for all you do!

We are helping YOUR state!

Every year, we strive to grant more money back to each state than we receive from that state in donations. This year, we will grant $11.7 million to the state Elks associations.

These grants help fund the state Elks associations' major charitable projects, which include aid for people with disabilities, cancer research, children's hospitals, youth camps, and so much more.

The state associations also use these grants to fund their Elks Hoop Shoot, Soccer Shoot, Drug Awareness, scholarship and veterans service programs, as well as other charitable and philanthropic projects.
