The New Hampshire State Elks Association is dedicated to supporting charitable initiatives and volunteer service that benefit New Hampshire's youth, veterans, and communities. We also provide leadership, guidance, and support to the 12 Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks Lodges throughout the state.

We are one of 46 State Elks Associations that make up the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks (BPOE), a nationwide fraternal organization of nearly one million members in more than 2,000 Lodges located across the United States, Puerto Rico, and Guam.

Since our founding in 1868, the Elks have been guided by the enduring principles of Charity, Justice, Brotherly Love, and Fidelity, along with a belief in God. These values inspire our members to strengthen their communities through volunteerism, charitable giving, patriotic service, and programs that improve the lives of others.
