Description

Passaic Valley Elks is part of a non profit organization of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks across our Country.  In New Jersey there are 112 Lodges.  

Our Lodge focuses on the communtiy in need.  Homeless Veterans, we work with a team from our State and set Homeless Veterans in an apartment, our lodge personally buys all of their kitchen needs, cleaning needs, bedding and bath items, we fully stock the apartment once ready for move in.  Veterans we invite to our lodge for brunches, dinners and we supply nearby Veterans homes with supplies that are needed, during Covid we purchased over 50 Ipads for the Paramus NJ Veterans home so that the Veterans can speak live to their family members.  Specail needs children and adults we also invite into our lodge for events, we give donations to the families that are in need and send many of them to special camps, one being our very own of the NJ Elks Assocation which is Camp Moore in Haskel NJ, our lodge has helped to fund this place since day one.  Youth of our community, we sponsor sports teams throughout the area and scholarship funding.  We very important project we help fund for our NJ Elks Assocation is Drug Awarness and our State project Peer Leadership where a large group of Elks get together to put a 3 day program together with professional speakers and different events to teach the kids about drugs, peer pressure, finaning for college and everyday life.

The monies raised at our Tricky Tray are all donated to those in need.  We hope you will assist in sometype of item, gift card, basket or certificate.
