A Holiday Message from the Washington State Elks Charitable Trust

Dear Washington Elks Members,

As we enter this special time of year, it’s a perfect moment to reflect on the incredible impact Elks across Washington have made in their communities. Your unwavering dedication to our mission—supporting veterans, youth, and families—embodies the true spirit of the season: giving.

The Washington Elks Charitable Trust is at the heart of this work, funding life-changing programs that strengthen and uplift our communities. From scholarships that open doors to brighter futures, to youth programs like Hoop Shoot, Drug Awareness, and EZ Child ID, and to our nation-leading Veterans Services—your continued support makes it all possible.

This past year, our collective efforts to support and grow the Charitable Trust have been nothing short of remarkable. We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed, to those who established recurring gifts, and especially to our generous matching donors. Because of your support, we were able to provide direct funding to our lodges, empowering them to expand their community initiatives, including EZ Child ID, Soccer Shoot, and several vital Veterans programs.

As we celebrate the Holidays, we ask you to once again consider giving the gift of hope by making a donation to the Charitable Trust. Every dollar you contribute helps expand our reach, increase lodge grant opportunities, and ensure we can continue making a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve.

Let’s come together this holiday season to build a lasting legacy of care and compassion—one that will endure long after the celebrations end. Thank you for your generosity and for living the true spirit of “Elks Care. Elks Share.”

Wishing you a joyous Holiday Season and a prosperous New Year.
