2383 fam

Adopt-a-Family for Christmas has been a long-standing tradition of Brandon Elks Lodge #2383. This year, 11 families with a total of 26 children were adopted by individual lodge members. Families in the community who need a little assistance are identified, and members get the opportunity to make a difference in the child’s life at Christmas with gifts tailored to their wish lists. On Dec. 14, lodge members gathered to wrap all the gifts. Exalted Ruler Marionette Sexton-Garvey and her husband, Glenn, saw that all the presents were delivered to each family in time to be under their Christmas tree for Christmas. All toys and clothes are donated by lodge members. Pictured are Carolyn Thomas, Brandon Ladies of Elks member, and Marionette Sexton-Garvey, Exalted Ruler.
