The Elks National Foundation, under the chairmanship of Past Grand Exalted Ruler John F. Malley, of Boston, is engaged in creating a fund of $20,000,000 for new forms of welfare and educational work. The order maintains the large clublike Elks National Home at where more than 500 aged and indigent Elks can spend their declining years -n peace and comfort. High on the list of nnumerable good works are the activities on behalf of crippled children engag- ed in by state and local Elks groups. Through this activity, Elks lodges in Florida contributed heavily, during 1945, to the Har-} a Home for crippled chil- dren ;in Georgia, to “Aidmore”; in New Jersey, to the Betty Bach- rach Home for Affected Children to the Goshen Fresh Air Camp for Crippled Children. | Lodges in many sections of the country maintain a visiting nurse service, primarily for the detec- tion and treatment of polio ca: as well as a clinic at which chil- dren are examined freé and the cost of medical care and _hos- pitalization provided when cir- cumstances warrant. Supple- menting all these activities, Elk lodges have donated “iron lungs” and other medical facilities to hospitals throughout the country Added to this work among crippled children are donaticas for the upkeep of other institu- tions.
