Purpose

Texas Elks Camp provides special needs and foster children an opportunity to try new things, meet new friends and make memories that will last a lifetime. Campers are encouraged to make their own decisions, become more independent and accept new challenges. Parents often notice dramatic positive changes and improved self-esteem after only one week at camp.

The first of the programs is Texas Elks Camp, which was started in 1987. The second program is Grants for Special Children. This program provides grant money for special needs children in Texas to have adaptive or assistive devices such as, prosthetic devices,  hearing aids, telephonic equipment, wheel chairs, and other items deemed necessary by medical professionals. TECSI is operated by a board of directors, elected from eight districts, that represent the Elks of Texas. Both of these projects are made possible by the Sweethearts from Texas Elks Lodges, and Texas Elks Endowment, Inc.
