Scholarships
In 2022 we continued our tradition in offering scholarships for outstanding youth in our community. These scholarships are in honour of our two last lifetime members Al Pradine and Al Edwards… The White Rock Elks Scholarship program began several years ago with Florence Wall and Al Pradine lovingly donating funds to make these scholarships possible, a tradition that we have now followed for throughout years.
Below is a picture of Al and Florence celebrating White Rock Elks 60th anniversary.
We are excited to announce that White Rock Elks 431 will continue our scholarship program in 2023. The White Rock Elks are all about volunteering and its important for us to continue that tradition.
This year we are offering three separate $1000 scholarships.
