“Service Above Self”

The Dante Alighieri Society was incorporated in 1909 and has been a recognized organization worldwide for the last 116 years.

The society was named after the Renaissance poet Dante Alighieri from Florence who authored the Divine Comedy. The sole purpose of the Dante Alighieri Society is to promote the study of the Italian language and culture throughout the world. A purpose independent of political ideologies, national or ethnic origins or religious beliefs, and that the Society is the free association of people, not just Italians, but all people everywhere who are united by their love for the Italian languages and culture and the spirit of universal humanism that these represent.

At the heart of this organization, we come together to celebrate and spread the Italian Culture while giving back to the community at large. We are one unified club, movement and initiative for the culture and for the people.
