Winter 2026 Quarterly Meeting

Our winter quarterly gathering is right around the corner, and we’re excited to welcome you! Since our founding in Philadelphia in 1771, the Friendly Sons and Daughters of St. Patrick has brought together people of Irish heritage and affinity to celebrate our rich culture, support charitable causes, and enjoy the fellowship that makes this Society so special.

Our quarterly meetings are more than just business — they’re a chance to reconnect with old friends, meet new members, and take part in the shared mission that unites us. Whether you’re passionate about preserving Irish heritage, supporting scholarship and benevolence, or simply enjoying lively conversation and camaraderie, your presence helps keep our tradition alive and thriving.

Come join us to stay informed on Society updates, contribute your voice to our work, and be part of the vibrant community that makes the Friendly Sons and Daughters unique. These gatherings are the heart of our Society — your participation enriches us all.
