What is the Ancient Order of Hibernians In America? |
|||
Active across the United States, The Ancient Order of Hibernians seeks to aid the newly arrived Irish, both socially, politically. The many Divisions and club facilities located throughout the U.S. traditionally have been among the first to welcome new Irish Americans. Here, the Irish culture -- art, dance, music, and sports are fostered and preserved. The newcomers can meet some of "their own" and are introduced to the social atmosphere of the Irish-American community. the AOH has been at the political forefront for issues concerning the Irish, such as; Immigration Reform; economic Incentives both here and in Ireland; the human rights issues addressed in the MacBride Legislation; Right-To-Life; and a peaceful and just solution to the issues that divide Ireland.
The Order has also provided
a continuing bridge with Ireland for those who are generations removed
from our country. The AOH sponsors many of the programs associated with
promoting our Irish Heritage such as the IRISH WAY PROGRAM. "Friendship, Unity, and Christian Charity". Dia 's Muire dhuit!
