Elks lodge #1690 in Ontario has put their Beacon grant to great use by stuffing over 40 go bags for local foster kids.
These bags provide the basic needs for children, pajamas, socks, pants, shirts, hair ties, hairbrush, toothbrush, baby items and a blanket.
The Ontario Elks Lodge is accepting donations of new items for children in all sizes until the end of January. These bags are donated to the Ontario department of health services. If you would like to contribute, please drop the items off at the lodge 20 SW 3rd St Ontario, OR.
