Using the full amount of the Elks National Veterans Service Commission $10,000 Focus Grant, Miami Elks Lodge #948 purchased baby supplies for 40 women veterans, either currently pregnant or who have had a baby within the past year. On Sept. 7, lodge members took 10 women to a Target store. On Sept. 14, they took another 30 women. Lodge volunteers Sharon Miller Weiss, Jody Impellizzeri, Pauly DeBeche, Maribel and Miguel Rodriguez, Mary Ellen Gomez, and Ashley Rodriguez helped make this happen, along with Andrea Miller of the Miami VA Healthcare System.
