Elks Lodge supports various charities

The Thousand Oaks Elks Lodge No. 2477 recently donated $600 to the Sepulveda Ambulatory Care Center and nursing home for recreational therapy for use in the therapeutic needs of veterans.

The California Hawaii Elks Association is offering $1,000 scholarship vocational grants to American citizens who require occupational training or retraining to compete in the workplace.

This grant may be used for tuition, fees, books, supplies and room and board if living on campus.
