Pennsylvania Fraternal Alliance

Helping PA Fraternal Organizations to Achieve More

We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting a general awareness and interest in the fraternal benefit system while helping others. Our motto is "The Keystone of Fraternals, Joining Hands to Touch Lives."

The Pennsylvania Fraternal Alliance organized in 1901 , is comprised of 44 fraternal societies licensed to do business in our great state. Our combined membership totals over 700,000 fraternalists.

Within the Pennsylvania Fraternal Alliance, three regional associations have organized to further the ideals and goals of the state alliance.

The Pennsylvania Fraternal Alliance was founded for the purpose of uniting fraternal benefit societies doing business in Pennsylvania.

PENNSYLVANIA FRATERNAL ALLIANCE LEGISLATIVE DINNER MARK YOUR CALENDAR – TUESDAY, April 28, 2026 – FOR THE PENNSYLVANIA FRATERNAL ALLIANCE LEGISLATIVE DINNER AT THE PROGRESS GRILL, 3526 WALNUT STREET, HARRISBURG This will be the twelfth year the Pennsylvania Fraternal Alliance has presented the Keystone Legislative Award. This award is presented to a legislator who has supported and promoted the fraternal system and in particular, the work of the Pennsylvania Fraternal Alliance. The 2026 recipient is Representative Timothy Brennan. The presentation will take place at 6 P.M at the Progress Grill, 3526 Walnut Street, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The dinner will be from 6 P.M. to 8:30 P.M. and will include the awardee and several other senators and representatives from Pennsylvania. It is extremely important that your society is represented at this event. We need to continue to make ourselves VISABLE to the members of the Pennsylvania House and Senate. Only by showing a presence we can do just that! As in the past we are asking for your monetary support for this important event. For a donation of $200, each society will be issued ONE ticket for the legislative dinner. A small sum if we are to reap the benefits of our contact with the Legislators. One person from your Society will be able to greet the Legislators and let them know we appreciate them. Additional tickets may be purchased for a fee of $100 per person, we are limiting participation to 3 individuals per society. The more people we have at the dinner, the greater impression we make! Here is the information you will need to join us! A waiting list will be available. Pennsylvania Fraternal Alliance – Legislative Dinner Tuesday, April 28, 2026 – 6:00 P.M. – 8:30 P.M.
