A private club & charitable foundation that donates thousands of dollars to local Florence charities. WHO ARE THE ELKS? Good question, and thanks for asking.

The short answer is this:
- A fraternal order with nearly a million members and a 150-plus year history.
- A network of nearly 2000 lodges in communities all over the country.
- A generous charitable foundation that each year gives millions in scholarships, an inspiration to youth, a friend to veterans and more. Through our history of now over 150 years, Elks nationally have contributed over $675 million back into the communities we serve. Currently, our annual charitable contributions total $80 million. This may go to causes listed as above, or other worthy local causes. Here in the Shoals area, Florence Lodge #820 provides needed items for local schools, children's causes, Veterans programs, first responders, victims of domestic violence and more. WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO BE AN ELK? We are a private, non-profit 501c(3) members-only organization that is self-funded. Our purpose: "To promote and practice the four cardinal virtues of Charity, Justice, Brotherly Love and Fidelity; to promote the welfare and enhance the happiness of its members; to quicken the spirit of American Patriotism and cultivate good fellowship." Yes, at Florence Lodge 820 we have a great club, wonderful people and awesome entertainment, but our purpose as Elks is to serve the community. Everything we do goes to serve that cause or to keep the lights on so we can serve that cause. We have only a handful of employees, the rest of the work is done by volunteer members who are doing everything they can to make a difference. If you would like to make a difference right here in the Florence area, we need YOU as a member. HOW TO JOIN
You can contact us here on this page, stop by for a visit, or email us at [email protected]. Before making a decision to join, however, we encourage you to understand more about what it means to be an Elk. We love all of our members and their guests but also hope that new members want to join because they want to be a contributing part of an organization where you can make a difference in your own community. To learn more about being an Elk, please visit www.elks.org. We look forward to having you as a member of our family right here in Florence, AL.
