LODGE COMMUNICATIONS

Tell us what’s happening.

You do not need to write an article. Give us the facts once and we’ll take it from there — Lodge communications, community impact reporting and external Elks publications.

COMMUNITY IMPACT STORY

Help us tell the story beyond the Lodge.

This route asks for a little more because strong external stories need the facts, impact and usable photos.

For the best chance of Arizona Elks News or The Elks Magazine using the story, please include: ✓ Event or project date ✓ What happened ✓ Who benefited ✓ Measurable result — dollars, people served, items donated, volunteers, etc. ✓ Names of people who should be credited ✓ At least one good original photo ✓ Names of people in the photo, left to right

Missing something? Submit it anyway. We can still use the story for Lodge communications and follow up before sending it to Arizona Elks News or The Elks Magazine.

Event / project name Event / activity date

Location Sponsor, partner or organization involved

Type of activity What happened? Who benefited and why did it matter?

Photos help the story travel further. Original/high-resolution photos are best. Tell us who is pictured from left to right. If possible, include someone who benefited from the activity rather than only a check presentation.
