Grant Requirements
Community Outreach Grant Projects must meet the following criteria:

1. CHARITABLE: The project must be focused on helping those in need (e.g., at-risk-youth, homeless veterans, or those who are hungry).
2. ELKS-LED: Elks must be actively involved. This must be a hands-on project for the Elks and identifiable in the community as an Elks project.
3. COMMUNITY PROJECT: This must be an activity. Funds may be split for multiple activities for ONE project. Awards may not be used for a donation of supplies or funds.

Please Note: Community Outreach Grants MAY NOT be used to fund scholarships, Hoop Shoot events, youth awards nights, poster and/or essay contests, or fundraisers. Although these are worthwhile activities, the purpose of this grant is to help Lodges EXPAND their charitable outreach and to fund projects that will inform and inspire members of your community to join us in an organization that does great things.
