**Elks:** "As long as there are Veterans, the Elks will never forget them". The Santa Monica Elks’ "Operation Veteran Comfort" sponsored a lunch and provided entertainment for over 100 vets at the West Los Angeles VA. Each vet received a meal and enjoyed a live concert performed by country acoustic musicians.

Operation Veteran Comfort is a program designed to help veterans transition from homelessness to permanent housing. The lodge has donated over $15,000 in housing items, food baskets, bi-monthly dinners and a scheduled Vet Fishing Trip.
