Scholarships/Safety Glasses/Americanism
What a tribute for a lodge to be able to do.

The Elks National Foundation offers scholarships to outstanding, service-minded high school seniors. Each year, ENF awards more than $3 million in college scholarships to at least 850 students. The scholarships are for undergraduate study only, and a student may not receive more than one grant in any one academic year. Safety glasses are not regular glasses and regular glasses are not safety glasses. Safety glasses help to provide eye and face protection for students whenever they are exposed to potential eye injuries at school. The glasses help in Shop, Cosmetology, Nursing, Car mechanic, Construction, Woodworking and JROTC rifle. Americanism – “What does Patriotism Mean to Me?” The opportunity to give to the Middle Schools gives the chance to instill in our youth patriotism in our country while allowing students to reflect on what freedom means to them. The
schools where deliveries were: Liberty Middle, James River Day School and Staunton River Middle and Boy Scout Troop #143
