Thank You, Coeur d’Alene Elks Lodge #1254
Written/Narrated by: Ed Bejarana | Published on: January 6, 2026
The Veterans Club is deeply grateful to the Coeur d’Alene Elks Lodge #1254 for awarding us a $1,000 grant to support the purchase of a laptop computer that will directly advance our mission.
This grant was made possible through the efforts of Michael Quinn, who submitted our organization for consideration, and Fran, who worked closely with Ed to gather all the necessary details. Their support and follow-through made this opportunity possible.
The new laptop will allow The Veterans Club to:
- Gather and manage information more effectively at chapter meetings
- Create and update marketing materials
- Support the day-to-day operational needs of running the business side of the organization
This kind of practical, mission-aligned support makes a real difference. It helps us stay organized, responsive, and better equipped to serve veterans and first responders throughout our community.
A big thank you to the Coeur d’Alene Elks Lodge and Michael Quinn for believing in our work and helping us move it forward. Your generosity strengthens the connections that matter most.
