Van Wert Elks #1197 Donates $3,000 To Local Salvation Army

Van Wert Elks Lodge #1197 recently donated $3,000 to the Salvation Army of Van Wert for their food pantry.   The monies are from a Beacon Grant the lodge received from the Elks National Foundation.

The Elks National Foundation is a perpetual trust fund established in 1928 by the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks.   Contributions to the Foundation are made each year by almost one million Elks and their families and friends from more than 2000 Elks Lodges across the United States, Guam, Puerto Rico and the Philippines. 

Van Wert Elks Lodge is happy to be able to assist the Salvation Army with this important service they provide the citizens of the community in need.
