Tunnel To Towers Foundation Fundraiser

On Saturday, June 28th in the Lodge Hall, there will be a fundraiser for the Tunnels to Towers Foundation. A chicken dinner will be served 4:00 — 7:00 PM. Price for the dinner is by donation — give what you feel is appropriate. There will be an auction, raffles, and 50/50 drawing(s). Take-out food will be available. For more information, call 775-385-1341 or 618-615-3502.

“Since 9/11, we have been helping America’s heroes by providing mortgage-free homes to Gold Star and fallen first responder families with young children and by building specially-adapted smart homes for catastrophically injured veterans and first responders. We are also committed to eradicating veteran homelessness and helping America to Never Forget September 11, 2001.” (from t2t.org website)

Since the Elks were founded, we have always stated that "as long as there are veterans, the Elks will never forget them." Stop in for this event if you can. Come by and eat, or ask what volunteer help they need.
