Mission Statement

To inculcate the principles of Charity, Justice, Brotherly Love and Fidelity; to recognize a belief in God; to promote the welfare and enhance the happiness of our members; to quicken the spirit of American patriotism; to cultivate good fellowship; to perpetuate the Order as a fraternal organization, and to provide for its government, the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the United States of America will serve the people and communities of this nation through benevolent programs, demonstrating that Elks Care and Elks Share.

Our aim is to lessen the suffering of those less fortunate than us and to invest in benevolent programs that help our children to realize their full potential as they grow up, to bring comfort and assistance to veterans and active military service people of the United States military, to be community leaders in the fight against drugs and to quicken the pulse of Americanism in our community. We achieve these goals using various financial instruments to fund our benevolent programs, donations, volunteerism and old fashioned hard work. We are a strong link in the chain of B.P.O.E. lodges and annually contribute thousands of dollars to charitable foundations as well as distributing thousands of dollars to the local community each year.
