2159 kit

On Nov. 4, Largo Elks Lodge members Jeanne Reinhart, PDD and Rudy Fontane delivered the lodge's 30th Welcome Home Kit, a program sponsored by the Elks National Veterans Service, to Nathan Witt, Chief of Voluntary Service at Bay Pines VA Healthcare System in St. Petersburg, Fla. The Elks National Veterans Service will reimburse any lodge up to $300 for the purchase of household items for a veteran moving in to their own home. Usually, these veterans have nothing but the shirts on their backs. Lodge members donate many household items (no furniture) which are also incorporated into the kit. Included in the kit were kitchen utensils, a coffee maker, bed linens, kitchen and bath towels, cleaning supplies, a clock radio, a lamp, light bulbs, batteries, dishes, and much more.
