The Minot Elks recently provided support to various local groups with grants from the National Elks Foundation.

With the Freedom Grant, the local Elks supplied 30 diaper bags with diapers, wipes, sleepers, towels, blankets, lotions, baby wash, toothbrushes, toothpaste and books to the Minot Air Force Base Family Support Program.

The Gratitude Grant was used to donate $500 to each the Men’s Winter Refuge, Second Story, ND Firefighters Museum and Mouse River Players to support their programs. Another $500 in food and supplies were purchased for the Domestic Violence Crisis Center.
