Massapequa Elks Lodge visits Long Island Veterans Hospital in Stony Brook

​On Tuesday July 16th, Veterans Chair Fran Ward along with Committee Member Anne Williams, visited the Long Island Veterans Hospital at Stony Brook University. Our Lodge sponsored a delicious Chinese luncheon for approximately 50 residents, volunteers and staff which was thoroughly enjoyed by all. In addition, 55 Craft Kits, which we requested from our Elks Services National Veterans Commission, were delivered to the Recreational Therapy team.
Also, last month the Veterans Committee collected Manufacturers coupons which were sent to our Active Duty Military for the Troopons program run by the Support Our Troops organization. We collected, cut, sorted and shipped 802 coupons with a value of $3,684.49 for use by our Military at the Commissaries where they shop.
Thanks to all our Members who help make these initiatives possible.
