Elks donate $1,000 to Emory Valley Center campaign

The Oak Ridge Lodge No. 1684 Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks has donated $1,000 to the Emory Valley Center’s Capital Fund Campaign, a press release said.

The goal of the Capital Fund Campaign is to help replace the Daniel Arther Rehabilitation Center on Emory Valley Road, which is scheduled to be torn down in early 2015. This building holds many of the Emory Valley Center’s programs.

“We are so thankful for the continued support of the community for our Capital Fund Campaign and look forward to continuing our relationship in the future,” said Jennifer Enderson,  Emory Valley Center president.

The fundraising goal for the new building is between $3.5 million and $4 million, and the campaign has raised close to half of that.

For more information about the Emory Valley Center programs or to make a donation, go to the Emory Valley Center’s website at www.emoryvalleycenter.com.
