Using part of a grant from the Elks National Foundation, Middlesboro Lodge No.119 recently made a donation to the Cooperative Christian Ministry (CCM), a local faith-based social service organization which helps disadvantaged families in and around Middlesboro with the necessities of food and clothing. CCM also assists eligible families with rent and utility payments. Pictured on right is Middlesboro Elks President Tommy Harrell with CCM Director Eric Martin.
