"Thank you again for supporting my aspirations for higher education! I hope to proudly represent the Elks National Foundation as an Elks Scholar and give back to the community in the future just as you have given to me."
David Schumacher, Scholar
ENF Programs
The mission of the Elks National Foundation is to help Elks build stronger communities. We fulfill this pledge by investing in communities where Elks live and work. We provide tomorrow’s leaders, our youth, with a healthy beginning; honor the Elks’ pledge to never forget our veterans; help the state Elks associations accomplish their charitable objectives and fund projects that improve the quality of life in local Elks communities.
