El Cajon Elks to Start Music Instrument Fund for Youth in Need

CHICAGO, Jan. 25 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- With some help from the Elks National Foundation, the charitable arm of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, the El Cajon Elks will provide musical instruments to young people in the community who seriously want to continue their music education, but cannot afford an instrument or do not attend schools that offer music education.
