This program is a collaboration between Matheson Memorial Library and the Sons of Norway. The Sons of Norway was organized as a fraternal benefit society by 18 Norwegian immigrants in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on January 16th, 1895. The purpose of the Sons of Norway was to protect members of Sons of Norway and their families from the financial hardships experienced during times of sickness or death in the family. Over time, the mission of Sons of Norway has expanded to include the preservation of Norwegian heritage and culture. They are now the largest Norwegian organization outside Norway.
