Our Programs
(from
http://www.elks.org/vets/programs.cfm)
(This is a list of the
Nationally sanctioned Veterans-oriented projects. Many more have been
established on a state-to-state and Lodge-to-Lodge basis.)
Youth/Veteran
Volunteer Program: This innovative new program allows us to fulfill our
commitment to America's youth while continuing to serve our nation's veterans.
Adopt-a-Veteran
Program: Like an army of hope, Elks everywhere are living up to their
pledge to hospitalized veterans.
Featured
Veteran: Two new profiles: Joseph Kowaleski and Tom Layow.
Veterans
Leather Program: VA medical centers across the country rely on the Elks
for tooling leather used in occupational and recreational therapy.
Veterans Remembrance: Remembering our veterans is a daily proposition
for the Elks. Nevertheless, each November we redouble our efforts.
Re-Creation USA: This group of entertainers travels the nation,
performing at VA medical centers, and they couldn't do it without the Elks.
Playing Cards for Veterans: The Elks now offer playing cards for
hospitalized veterans.
