ENF is an organization which is dedicated to helping local lodges support their community. All Elks members are encouraged to support ENF. In return, ENF awards grants to local lodges which they use to help improve their community. The amount which a lodge receives in grants is determined partly by the amount of money which the lodge gives to support ENF. Our lodge has received several different grants in varying amounts. This year we have received grants totaling $8,700.
As of September 1st 60% of our lodge has contributed $6,739.50. Members can contribute to ENF at any time of the year. You can contribute any amount by bringing your contribution to the office or going on line and contributing directly to the Elks National Foundation. We are very proud of the fact that the members of 1714 have been generous with their contribution to ENF.
