How is the
Elks National Foundation
Helping
Arizona?
When you give to the Elks National Foundation, you’re doing more than
funding the Elks National Drug Awareness and "Hoop
Shoot" programs. You’re doing more than supporting the Community Investments Program and
providing Emergency Educational Grants
to the children of deceased or totally disabled Elks. You’re doing more
than maintaining the Elks Veterans Memorial.
You're doing all that, and you're supporting Elkdom in
your state.
During the 2006-07 Lodge year, the Elks of Arizona donated $235,832.08
to the Elks National Foundation. This year, the Foundation will give back
