About Us

The Fraternal Order of Eagles (F.O.E.) is an international charitable non-profit organization uniting fraternally in the spirit of liberty, truth, justice, and equality, to make human life more desirable by lessening its ills and promoting peace, prosperity, gladness and hope.

The F.O.E. donates more than $10 million a year to local communities, fundraisers, charities and more. As part of its philosophy, the F.O.E. gives back 100 percent of monies raised in the form of grants. Fundraisers are conducted for eight major charities, including kidney, heart, diabetes, cancer and spinal cord injury funds, a children's fund, memorial foundation and the Golden Eagle Fund.

The Fraternal Order of Eagles (F.O.E.) was founded in February 1898 by six theatre owners gathered in a Seattle shipyard to discuss a musician's strike. After addressing the matter, they agreed to "bury the hatchet" and form "The Order of Good Things." As numbers grew, members selected the Bald Eagle as the official emblem and changed the name to "The Fraternal Order of Eagles." The women's auxiliary traces its roots to 1927. The F.O.E. includes nearly 800,000 members and more than 1,500 locations across the United States and Canada. 

The St. Paul Eagles Aerie #33 was established in 1899, making it the 33rd in the nation to be established. In the 1980s the Eagles #33 moved into their current location at Maria Avenue in the former DeLuxe Theatre building.
