Perseverance can't be forced. But what we can do as volunteers is provide encouragement and support so that the #HoopShoot competitors have a chance to figure it out for themselves. Here's "All in the Elks Family," part five of our #TrueGritTuesdays series. (Runtime: 1 min., 37 secs.) | Elks National Foundation

The Elks Hoop Shoot is a completely free program for kids ages 8-13. Through practice, dedication and free throws, competitors unleash grit—and have a lot of fun doing it! Last year, Fidelity Club members donated more than $16,000 to the Elks Hoop Shoot to continue developing the next generation of gritty, hard-working kids. Do you want to support this free program in a convenient and flexible way? Consider joining the Fidelity Club! Learn more about the Club at https://www.elks.org/enf/Fidelity
