The Motto of the AOH is "Friendship, Unity & True Christian Charity", basically to live one of the three parts of our motto and help those who are less fortunate than we are and just helping those in need no matter what the circumstance or the background.  This comes to life in our Missions & Charities that we donate our time and money to throughout the year.  The county Board as well as the county collectively donate thousands of dollars that we raise to local, national & international Catholic & Irish charities as well and volunteering hundreds of hours with many of these same charities both locally and nationally.  A brief list follows.

​

~Volunteering at our home Parishes as Ushers, Decons, Music Directors, Fish Fry's, etc.
