1795 football

In April 2022, Fort Walton Elks Lodge #1795 donated $500 to Future Stars Football Clinic (FSFC), a local youth organization of Okaloosa County, Florida. This annual event is in its fifth year and had approximately 350 participant players 6 to 13 years of age. The donation will help with the purchase of greatly needed football equipment, which will in turn enable young football players to train harder, more efficiently and, most importantly, safely. FSFC believes that sports are a great way to build character, self-esteem, sportsmanship and leadership skills. A proven fact is that kids who participate in sports do better in school and are more likely to have a positive impact on other students and their communities. The FSFC mission is to provide children with an avenue for growth with the hope of long-term community fortification. Christopher Torres, CEO, was very pleased and thankful for the involvement and donation.
