Members of the Order of the Eastern Star strive to live our lives by the enduring beliefs of Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth, along with certain core values:

WHO WE ARE

The Order of the Eastern Star is a member of the Family of Freemasonry. We are the largest fraternal Order in the Family of Freemasonry that admits both women and men to membership.

Eastern Star celebrates the lives of five women of the Bible. Each woman exemplifies one of the principles of the Order— Fidelity, Constancy, Loyalty, Faith and Love.

Each member of the Order commits themselves to live by the virtues of our Order, which are illustrated and explained to each new member at the time of their initiation.

FRIENDSHIP

We are the largest fraternal organization in the world to which both women and men can belong. With Chapters in almost all 50 states and in 27 countries around the world, members can go anywhere and know that they can find friends and a helpful hand when they’re in need.

CHARITY

As an organization, we raise funds to aid our members in need and to make a difference in our communities with research funds and scholarships for students regardless of age or membership status, as well as other charities. We fund and operate a Senior Living Community for our older members who belong to California Chapters. And we were the first statewide non-profit sponsor of the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life.

DIVERSITY

The members of our Order reflect the social, cultural, educational, ethnic, and religious diversity of the community around them. We value each other’s strengths and opinions.

COMMUNITY SERVICE

We encourage our members not only to help one another, but also to reach out to their communities. Members are active in many community-based projects for those requiring assistance.

PATRIOTISM

We encourage our members to value their citizenship and to honor the Flag of their country. We support our servicemen and women overseas through our We Care program, sending packages to our troops overseas to lighten the burden of their deployment.
