America’s fraternal benefit societies are a distinctive, charitable force of more than 9.3 million people with various ethnic, religious and vocational backgrounds. For nearly 150 years, fraternal benefit societies have been helping their members achieve financial security through insurance and retirement products, combined with an ambitious volunteer service program for individuals, communities and the nation.
Fraternal benefit societies provide millions of dollars in educational support each year for students and the schools they attend. They maintain and support humanitarian, social and service agencies and causes. In 2008 alone, these organizations contributed nearly 94 million hours of volunteer time toward community service projects.
In the spirit of caring and sharing, 68 not-for-profit fraternal benefit societies — members of the National Fraternal Congress of America — have joined forces to sponsor JOIN HANDS DAY.
