WELCOME TO THE ORDER SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF ITALY OF CANADA
We are an organization devoted to the celebration of Italian heritage, community
service, and charitable good works. As a national organization, we are made
up of lodges scattered throughout Canada. Our rich history as an Order began
over 100 years ago, with our first lodge established in 1915.
National Mission Statement:
Canadians of Italian Heritage Working to Strengthen Our Community.
A MESSAGE FROM CARMELO ALONGI,
NATIONAL PRESIDENT
Dear Brothers and Sisters, and friends of the Order Sons and Daughters of Italy of Canada.
As National President of the Order Sons and Daughters of Italy of Canada, it is my honour and privilege to extend my warmest greetings and heartfelt thanks for your continued dedication to our beloved organization. This past year has been a remarkable journey, filled with challenges and triumphs that have only strengthened our unity and commitment to our shared heritage.
In every corner of our great nation, from the bustling cities to the peaceful small towns, our members have demonstrated the true spirit of our Order. Whether through cultural events, charitable initiatives, or community outreach, you have embodied the values our ancestors cherished and passed down to us: family, faith, and a deep love for our Italian heritage.
Many of the Ontario Italian members were invited to an event with Minister Filomena Tassi and Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau
