Beacon Grants

Beacon Grants must be used for a new, ongoing, Elks-led, charitable activity. If you applied and received a Beacon Grant in the prior year, you can reapply in the coming year to build upon the project. Beacon Grant funds cannot be used as a donation of funds or supplies. A Beacon Grant project must include meaningful, hands-on Elk involvement. Beacon Grants cannot be used to offset costs of charitable activities the Lodge already holds.
