FCSO Receives Elks Grant- The Franklin County Sheriff's Office is extremely thankful to the Benton Elks Lodge #1234 for their recent donation of $2000.00 to provide Stop the Bleed Kits for Patrol Deputies and School Resource Deputies. The funding was provided through the Illinois Elks Association State Community Grant , made possible locally through the Benton Elks Lodge. Each year, Elks Lodges across the country invest millions of dollars into local programs that support the welfare and well-being of their communities. Stop the Bleed Kits are designed to be simple, effective, and quickly accessible during a medical emergency. They contain specialized lifesaving equipment such as tourniquets, hemostatic gauze, and trauma dressings. These tools can be rapidly deployed to help control life-threatening blood loss and potentially save lives.We are grateful to the Benton Elks Lodge #1234 and the Illinois Elks Association for their generosity, support, and partnership in helping our Deputies obtain this invaluable lifesaving equipment. This donation will better prepare our patrol Deputies and School Resource Deputies to respond when seconds matter most.Thank you, Benton Elks Lodge #1234, for your continued commitment to our communities!
