IODE women have FUN!  Long-time IODE members agree that involvement is key to getting the most out of membership. The chapter is where most of IODE members’ meaningful service work is carried out.  

IODE gives back to communities through education, social service and citizenship programs with a special emphasis on children and literacy. 
 
IODE offers a sense of purpose because one person can make a difference in someone’s life with just a few hours a month as you work with other women to meet needs in your community. What IODE members’ get out of IODE depends largely on what they put into it.

IODE needs your gifts of time and talent.   You can serve others through your vocation and exercise high principles.

IODE experience allows you to develop new skills and abilities and attain valuable experience for employment. 

IODE members are encouraged to volunteer for leadership roles at the chapter level and beyond.
