MA Elks Veterans Fundraising Pins for 2009-2010
Are Available
As has been our tradition over the past few
years to have items for sale that will benefit our Hospitalized Veterans
in Massachusetts, we once again under our new State Chairman for
Veterans Fundraising Guy Abruzzese PDD Braintree Lodge, has come up with
a pin that his committee will be selling at a $1.00 a pin.
He is asking all lodges to purchase as many
pins for their use (many have pledged to purchase at least 100), that
they can either hand out to Veterans that they serve, give to members
who volunteer with the veterans or sell them at their lodge in honor of
the veterans of our state. So to place your orders please contact Guy
at 508 295-0072 or any of his committee to place your order. He has the
1" pins available at this time, which is pictured below. Let's have a
banner year in raising funds for our Veterans.
