Finding a sense of community and purpose in your hometown can be an uplifting experience. For many

Irish-Americans they find this through their local Ancient Order of Hibernians, otherwise known as the AOH, the largest and oldest Irish Catholic organization in America.

Who We Are

The AOH is a fraternal organization of Irish Catholic men, dedicated to preserving Irish culture, supporting our communities, and deepening our Catholic faith. Founded in 1836, we are rooted in the traditions of our ancestors and actively work to support charitable causes, advocate for Irish freedom, and honor our shared heritage.

What We Do

Preserve Irish Culture: Celebrate Irish history, music, dance, and traditions through events and education.

Support Catholic Values: Actively engage in our parishes and communities through charitable works and service. Advocate for Justice: Support efforts for peace, unity, and justice in Ireland and abroad.

Build Brotherhood: Connect with like-minded men who share your pride in Irish heritage and commitment to faith.

We invite all Catholics of Irish birth or descent to seek admittance to the FINEST Irish Catholic Organization in the World — all we would ask is for you to live our motto of: “Friendship, Unity, and Christian Charity”.
