Corvallis Elks Charity Trust
No separate official website for the Corvallis Elks Charity Trust was found; authoritative nonprofit profiles (ProPublica, Candid, GuideStar) list the Corvallis Elks Lodge #1413 page on elks.org as the organization's web presence. The trust is a 501(c)(3) private foundation (EIN 93-0835410) based at 1400 NW 9th St, Corvallis, OR and appears to make grants according to recent Form 990-PF filings.

Ideal Applicant
Small to mid-size community nonprofits, particularly in Corvallis/Oregon, working in youth development, veterans services, scholarships, or child health programs and able to manage relatively small single-year grants.
Good Fit
- • Located in Corvallis or elsewhere in Oregon (in-state recipients received most dollars).
- • Programs for youth (scholarships, shelters, camps) or veterans-focused services.
- • Need for one-time program support or small operating grants in the $500–$13,000 range.
- • Existing ties or past collaboration with the Elks lodge or local community service clubs.
Geography
Giving is concentrated in Oregon (about 66% of 2023 dollars) but the latest year also shows grants to recipients in two other states, for a three-state footprint overall.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows seven distinct recipients with four new entrants and three repeat grantees across two years, indicating a modestly diverse set of beneficiaries despite high dollar concentration among the top five recipients.
New Applicants
Direct behavioral evidence shows new recipients in 2023, so new entrants are possible, but the foundation also declares an essentially preselected/invitation-based process, so openness to unsolicited applicants is limited and uncertain.
