Elks Lodge thriving in Morden - Morden Times - Manitoba, CA - 0 views

  •  
    This year marks the 51st anniversary of the Elks Lodge in Morden. Morden Elks Lodge is a fraternal organization that raises funds to support local community and children's needs along with supporting the Elks of Canada Purple Cross Fund. This fund is accessible locally to help out children in need of medical care where additional funding is required. While most fraternal organizations are struggling to find new members, the Morden Elks are fortunate to have had a large number of young men - 28 in total - join the organization in the past few years.

Elks still pursuing funding for bowling alley - Wallowa County Chieftain: Local News - 1 views

  •  
    This lodge was given the bowling equipment by a private operator who went out of business. It would be cool if they could find a way to make it work in their lodge. I wish our lodge had room for a bowling center. That's lots of fun.

    I have to agree that gambling is not the best way to raise funds. However, our own lodge offers bingo and that is certainly gambling though legal.

    Now this is an interesting concept. Plus it provides long term funding for the Elks lodge. I expect a number of lodges could benefit by partnering with senior care facilities.

    interesting and unique type of raffle. Purpose is for general fund too! How refreshing that a lodge will avoid the kneejerk reaction to only have fundraisers for charitable purposes. Too many neglect their own basic needs.

Grateful for the Elks Club | AspenTimes.com - 0 views

    Dear Editor: Once again this amazing community has made my life possible. Even with the tough economic times I still found gracious support from the Aspen Elks Club. I cannot thank them enough. They have been my guardian angels ever since I first asked for their help in eighth grade. I am still amazed by their continual help. They have been there for my entire life, providing me and my family with the financial aid needed to make our lives possible. Both my sister and I have been able to participate in prestigious dance intensives all over the state and country because of their aid. They have not only been there to fund my artistic dreams, but my academic ones as well. As a high school senior pursuing a college career in pre-med I was again in need of financial assistance, and they were willing and supportive again. It is because of their efforts that I am able to attend Loyola University in New Orleans. I feel truly blessed to have been consistently supported by this amazing organization. Their help has been unwavering and selfless. I would like to acknowledge their persistent and financial contributions to my life. Thank you! Katie Isaacson Aspen

Canadian Elks looking to increase membership, attract youth. only 20k members now - 0 views

  •  
    There's no denying the positives the Elks of Canada have achieved since its inception in 1912. The organization has dedicated itself to working for the good and welfare of the community with priorities for the needs of children, senior citizens and many others in mind. Special concern has always been placed on the need for nearly identification and rehabilitation of hearing-impaired children and their national charity, the Elks and Royal Purple Fund for Children, has contributed over $15 million throughout the country in public awareness and special projects to bring about the early identification of those children.

    The Watertown Elks are distributing free dictionary reference books to all of the public school third-grade classes in Watertown, Jefferson, Johnson Creek and Lake Mills. The local Dictionary Project is being funded through a donation from the Watertown Elks Lodge. The idea for The Dictionary Project began in 1992 when Annie Plummer of Savannah, Ga., gave 50 dictionaries to children who attended a school close to her home. Each year she continued to give this gift, raising money to help give more and more books so that in her lifetime she raised enough money to buy 17,000 dictionaries for children in Savannah.
