We know that after graduation, Elks scholars continue to serve their communities. That is why we are offering the Elks Alumnus of the Year Award, designed to recognize one outstanding Elks alumnus who demonstrates a commitment to volunteering.

The recipient of this award will receive formal recognition during the ENF Salute to Excellence reception at the Elks National Convention in Portland, Ore., and a $500 grant to be donated to a charity of the alumnus’ choice.
