The Elks are one of the largest and most active fraternal organizations in the world.
The Elks are involved in a wide variety of programs, from scholarships to drug education to Veterans Services.
Public service is an integral part of being an Elk. In keeping with this tradition, Elks create and participate in many programs to better their communities and demonstrate that Elks Care – Elks Share!
The Elks are a 100% volunteer organization. We are always looking for people who can help our programs. Your donation of time and/or money is invaluable. Each year the Elks help many people through their Scholarship, Veteran and Sweetheart Programs.
