Fraternal organizations are societies or clubs formed to promote fellowship, mutual aid, and community service among their members. These groups often have rituals, traditions, and symbols that are central to their identity. Membership is usually exclusive, often requiring an invitation or meeting certain criteria. Many fraternal organizations also focus on charitable work, community involvement, and supporting the welfare of their members. These organizations have a long history, with some dating back centuries, and they often play a significant role in local communities.
