In conjunction with the Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida, our Lodge is soliciting donations from our members to support this worthy cause. Michele and Fred Kiesel are spearheading this initiative. The Girl Scouts have a program “Cookies for the Military” that sends cookies to our troops throughout the year.
Since the onset Covid-19, we were required to suspend our “Cookies for Soldiers” program and the Girl Scout Cookies for the Military is a wonderful way for our commitment to our military to continue. Every dollar donated to the Girl Scout Program will be used to purchase cookies. The Girl Scouts have an arrangement with Soldier Angels, Forgotten Soldiers Outreach and Operation Homefront where cookies are transported at no cost to the Girl Scouts! The goal is to have every package going to our military personnel to have “A Taste of Home”.
A $5 donation will purchase one box of cookies, $60 will send a case to our military personnel, and $100 will provide 20 boxes of cookies! Donations of all sizes are welcome!
Donations can be made by check (make your check payable to the Vero Beach Elks and write Girl Scout Cookies in the “for” line on your check) deposited in the Secretary’s mailbox or mailed care of the Secretary, by cash at the bar, by credit card at the bar or by credit card on the Lodge’s website (there is a button for Girl Scout Cookies Donation). With the approval of the membership, our Lodge Trustees have generously offered to match all donations from our Lodge’s charity fund! Let’s show our military men and women how much they are appreciated because…
