Who We Are
Our slogan tells you what the Eagles are all about.
We are...... "People Helping People."
For a century, the FRATERNAL ORDER of EAGLES has
been a major influence Internationally, Nationally, Regionally, in
our States and Provinces, AND most of all..... in our communities.
It was the EAGLES who started Mothers Day, who
provided the impetus for Social Security, who ended job
discrimination based on age. Who've built training centers all over
the world. Who raise millions of dollars every year to combat heart
disease and cancer. Help handicapped kids, uplift the aged and
otherwise make life a little brighter for people not as lucky and
blessed as we are.
We uphold and nourish the values of Home, Family
and Community that are so necessary and it seems so often today, so
ignored and trampled in society.
We're home town builders. We support our police
and firefighters and others who protect and serve us. We fund research in
areas such as Heart Disease, Kidney Disease, Diabetes and Cancer. We
help raise money for neglected and abused children and for the
aged..... we are the Eagles, and we are People Helping People.
We're volunteers and have fun volunteering.
Our praises have been sung by Presidents and Prime
Ministers, but still today too many people wonder 'WHO ARE THE
EAGLES?" It's time to get out the word, WE ARE THE EAGLES! For
100 years we have been leaders in the effort to make the world a brighter and better place for everyone.
