The Terrace lodge, founded Oct. 6, 1957, do- nates thousands of dollars to the community. In November of this year, it donated more than $13,000 to various charil- able causes, with more than $8,000 distributed locally. Last year, the Terrace lodge donated more than any other in the province to the Elks and Royal Pur- ‘ple Fund for Children, a charity providing personal assistance to children with special needs, particularly those with speech or hear- ing difficulties. “We've drawn $28,000 from the fund for assis- tance of children in “and member-needs — Terrace,” said Elk Jim Le- clair, “This year, because of the economic downturn, things have multiplied.” Meanwhile, Herod says the Elk’s vision statement — becoming a progressive family-focused organiza- tion meeting community is an important goal to keep in sight.
