The Odd Fellows

The exact date of the origins of the Odd Fellowship has been lost in time. It is known that the Odd Fellows established itself in Canada in 1843. The original Odd Fellows dedicated themselves to the relief of distress, to educating orphans and to compassionate caring for the underprivileged and less fortunate members of our society. Their guiding tenet of “Friendship, Love and Truth” continues to be their driving force, and today there are nearly 5,000 Odd Fellow and Rebekah Lodges across Canada, the United States, Australia, Belgium, Chile, Cuba, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Iceland, Netherlands, Norway, Puerto Rico, Sweden, Switzerland and Venezuela.
