John F. Malley Society


John F. Malley, PGER In 1928, Elks National Foundation founder John F. Malley charged the delegates of the Grand Lodge Convention with laying "the foundation of a more stately mansion—a temple of philanthropy with a dome so vast that it will cover the entire nation." Malley dreamed of a permanent endowment fund that would support the Order’s philanthropic works.

Like Malley, many of our donors are visionaries. They can see the wonderful possibilities of the Elks National Foundation and want the influence of their good deeds to continue forever. They want to leave their legacy to the future.

The John F. Malley Society recognizes those individuals who plan gifts to the Foundation. A planned gift can include a bequest, gift of appreciated stock, gift of life insurance, or other life income gifts. Membership benefits include:

  • The Malley Society pin. (Click for image.)
  • The Malley Society medallion.
  • Society sticker for membership card.
  • Name listed in Heartbeat, the ENF donor newsletter.
  • Invitation to a special event each year at the Elks National Convention (for active, annual donors).

To enroll in the John F. Malley society, you simply need to fill out a one-page application and provide us with a brief testimonial explaining why you chose to include the Foundation in your plans. After submitting your enrollment form, you will be asked to provide the relevant portion of your will or planned giving paperwork for our records. This information is confidential and will not be shared with other parties.
