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 meeting the needs of today's veterans and maintaining the Elks National Memorial.
You're doing all that, and you're supporting Elkdom in your state.
During the 2023-24 Lodge year, the Elks of California-Hawaii donated $1,199,510.92 to the Elks National Foundation. This year, the Foundation will give back the following:
That's a ratio of 1.736 for every dollar the Foundation received from your state last year. And that doesn't even include the money Lodges in your state will get back through our Community Investments Program.
For the 2023-24 fiscal year, for example, we awarded a total of $1,041,500.00 to 129 California-Hawaii Lodges.
