WE ARE THE ARIZONA ELKS Founded in 1910, the Arizona Elks Association mission is the same today as it was then-- to provide service to our communities and country. We have taken on two ``Major Projects`` that help us support that very mission. In 1992, The Arizona Elks Association and Arizona Elks Major Projects took on the Steele Children's Research Center as it's first project to provide funding to. This support has facilitated incredible research and helped their physician-scientists and researchers make new discoveries, teach the next generation of scientists and heal the children of Arizona and beyond. The Elks Pediatric Clinic sees over 65,000 children a year! Our second passion project is the Jack C. Warter Elks Youth camp located 40 miles northeast of Globe, Arizona, on Workman Creek in the Sierra Ancha Mountain Range. This youth camp is open to all youth groups free of cost!
AZ Elks Major Project: The Arizona Elks Endowed Chair in Statewide Pediatric Research will guarantee financial support in perpetuity, ensuring that the efforts made by the Arizona Elks today benefit children into the future. The prestige of the endowed chair will help recruit a top-notch clinical research leader to head the Steele Children's Research Center’s Phoenix enterprise. The Arizona Elks chair holder, Wayne Morgan, MD, will lead the translation of science from “proof of principle” in the laboratory to effective changes in how children are treated for disease in the future.
