About Us

Members of the Kearny-Belleville Elks Lodge posing together.

When a member hit rock bottom, it was Lodge 1050 that answered the door. That kind of story gets told again and again here on Elm Street in Kearny, and it says more about this place than any brochure ever could. Members don't just show up for the events. They show up for each other.

Chartered as part of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, Lodge 1050 has spent decades rooting itself in the towns of Kearny and Belleville, two communities that have always valued hard work, loyalty, and looking out for the neighborhood. The hall has hosted memorial concerts, fundraisers, holiday drives, and the kind of late-night conversations that actually help someone turn their life around.

With a 4.4-star rating backed by real members who call this place a second home, the lodge earns that praise the old-fashioned way: by being there. New faces are welcomed, long-timers are celebrated, and every gathering carries the sense that the people in the room genuinely want to know how you're doing.

What We Offer

Lodge 1050 offers more than a place to gather. It is a platform for doing good in the community. Members organize charity drives and fundraisers throughout the year, raising money and awareness for veterans, children with disabilities, and local families facing hardship. The Elks national network amplifies that impact, connecting local efforts to programs that reach millions of Americans.

Socially, the lodge keeps a busy calendar. Live music events, memorial tributes, holiday celebrations, and member nights fill the hall with laughter and a sense of belonging that's genuinely hard to find elsewhere. The bar and lounge give members a comfortable spot to decompress, catch up with friends, or simply sit quietly with someone who's been through something similar.

Membership opens doors to Elks national scholarships, youth programs, veteran support initiatives, and a brotherhood that travels with you wherever you go. If you've been looking for a way to give back and build real friendships at the same time, Lodge 1050 is the place to start.

A Proud Heritage

The Elks gave America
Flag Day.

Long before it was a national observance, the Order set aside June 14th to honor the flag. Patriotism has always been one of our cardinal principles, and every lodge meeting still closes the same way it has for over a century.

“To our absent members.” — the Eleven O’Clock Toast
