A Message From the Provincial President,

 
"Welcome To the Ontario Elks Website!
 
As President of the Ontario Elks Association, I invite you to take a look at what our Lodges can, and have been doing in our communities for many years! Whether you are already a member of the Elks, or are thinking about joining our team of volunteers, our website is designed to bring our Lodges, and potential new Lodges, together!
 
From Charitable pursuits to Member Lodge events, it is our intention to keep you up to date on the activities that make our membership great.
 
If you have any questions, or wish to obtain further information, please feel free to contact us by email via info@ontarioelks.ca, I would love to hear from you!" 
 
 
Sincerely,
 
Ron Hough, Provincial President

"Why Bother???...find out here!"
 
 

The Reasons...
 
Through the dedication and efforts of our many Lodge Members, the Elks in Ontario have raised and contributed over $1 million to an endless list of charitable causes and groups throughout the province. 
 
 From local charities in small communities to National Charities such as our Elks and Royal Purple Fund for Children, none of this assistance would be possible without our volunteers who make it all happen!

To explore the many aspects of our charitable programs, including the Ontario Elks Charity Fund, please visit our Charity page.
