The Lakeland Elks Lodge donated $4,500 to the Lakeland Police Athletic League (PAL) using a Gratitude Grant awarded through the Elks National Foundation’s Community Investments Program. The grant will help fund PAL’s fishing program, including seasonal expenses and a deep-sea fishing charter excursion for participating youth.

The Lakeland Police Athletic League provides enriching programs that foster sportsmanship, scholarship, and physical fitness while keeping youth active, engaged, and connected with positive role models through structured sports, recreation, and mentoring.
