The Gratitude Grant was obtained by Pam Gorby, the ENF Chairperson, who wrote up the proposal and submitted it to the Elks National Foundation CIP department for approval for use by Salem Elks Lodge #305. This grant totaled $4,000 and presented to the Salem Food Pantry by Mike Reich, Loyal Knight to the Director Terry Kerchum with the help of Ben Blevins, Exalted Ruler. The lodge is hoping that this will help local families with celebrating the upcoming holidays. (Submitted photo)
