While the COVID-19 pandemic may prevent us from meeting in person, we hope you’ll find creative ways to share this information about the Elks National Foundation. Feel free to use this in Elks publications or as a reference should you encounter questions about the ENF. For more information, visit the ENF website at enf or contact the ENF office at enf@ or 773/755-4728.#HoopShootServesWhat to Say: On October 6, the ENF launched the Hoop Shoot Service Scorecard, a new virtual opportunity that combines gritty kids and fun with the Elks’ spirit of volunteerism. Each month features a new theme and 10 corresponding projects that vary in degrees of difficulty and time commitment. The ENF is calling on past, present and future Hoop Shooters; Elks; and gritty kids everywhere to get involved. The launch of the Service Scorecard coincided with the launch of a brand-new YouTube show, Hoop Shooting the Breeze, which will feature a special Hoop Shoot guest every month.

There’s Still Time to Support Pearl Harbor!What to Say: At the 2019 Elks National Convention in St. Louis, then-National President Mike Luhr called on the Elks to raise funds for Pearl Harbor National Memorial in Hawaii. The Elks launched the Pearl Harbor Campaign last fall in partnership with Pacific Historic Parks. Funds will help replace old outdoor exhibits, upgrade static displays with digital exhibits and interactive displays, and enhance the memorial's virtual education program. The campaign—which was supposed to close June 1—has been extended to Veterans Day, November 11. We are more than halfway to the goal of $780,000.
