“Elkdom’s Heart For America” 
“Taking the Future of Elkdom by Storm“
Cedar Rapids Lodge #251 distributes Dictionaries and DAP materials
Cedar Rapids Elks Lodge #251 distributed Drug Awareness materials and dictionaries to third grade students attending Title One schools in Cedar Rapids. Due to the pandemic, we arranged for curbside deliveries of these materials. For everyone’s safety, no assembly-style presentations highlighting Elk programs that support youth in our community were made this year.

AboutIowa Elks
Our Mission
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 its members; to quicken the spirit of American patriotism; to cultivate good fellowship; to perpetuate itself 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 through benevolent programs, demonstrating that Elks Care and Elks Share.
Our Goal
Elks Lodges bring so much more to their communities than just a building, golf course or pool. They are places where neighbors come together, families share meals, and children grow up.
Elks invest in their communities through programs that help children, Veterans and community needs.
