Where Community Matters

At Mankato Elks Lodge #225, we bring together neighbors who share a commitment to making our community stronger. Founded on the timeless values of Charity, Justice, Brotherly Love and Fidelity, we're part of a nationwide network of nearly 2,000 lodges dedicated to serving our communities, veterans and youth.

The Mankato Elks isn't just a lodge—it's a family of community-minded individuals who believe in making a difference. Together with Elks across America, we invest millions in scholarships, youth development programs, and veteran support services that change lives right here in Mankato.

It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of the recent passing of one of our members, John Nelson (standing, left).

Always a willing volunteer, John was an exemplary member of the Mankato Lodge for 16 years and had currently been serving as Tiler. He was a very good friend to many of us and will be dearly missed.

Service Details for John.
