West Des Moines Lodge #2752 supports Clive Police Department
Clive Police Department’s new K-9 dog “Dutch” stopped by the Elks to show appreciation for the $2,000 donation that helped to get his new assignment! His duties are to help keep drugs off the streets, perform community outreach and help search for people & explosives. His partner, Officer Brian Kempnich and Police Chief Michael Venema accompanied Dutch to the lodge to express their appreciation for our donation.Thank you all for keeping us safe!

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.
