Let’s help our Sons of Norway members
hurt by hurricanes and wild fires—
We are a community
We are a Fraternal Benefit Society, founded because of the needs of immigrants a generation or more ago. Recently our beautiful land has been hit hard with natural disasters leaving some of our sisters and brothers in a state of salvage. If you need aid, contact Sons of Norway to find out how the Humanitarian Fund can help you. If you haven’t been hurt by these disasters please consider donating to this fund through the Sons of Norway Foundation. We have helped our members after other disasters and are there for you now.
Canadians wishing to aid Sons of Norway members in the U.S. can get tax receipts by channeling donations through the Sons of Norway Foundation in Canada. Click on SONFIC donation form and indicate there how you want your funds directed.
Trollhaugen Camp
Another great year at camp in 2017. Follow Trollhaugen Language Arts and Culture Society on Facebook for fun stuff like Throwback Thursday photos. Registration forms for 2018 will be available early in the year at www.trollhaugenalberta.ca. Located at Deer Valley Meadows near Alix, Alberta, this family camp provides Norwegian language, history, crafts and culture for all ages. On the final day of camp guests are welcome to view the crafts exhibit, have lunch and enjoy the wind-up program.
