    Administrative history

    The Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire (IODE), Elizabeth Fry Chapter, Sudbury branch was formed on February 23, 1932. The Elizabeth Fry Chapter was one of four chapters of the IODE that eventually organized in the Sudbury district. The other chapters were: Nipissing, Marjorie Price, and Elizabeth Barrett Browning. The Elizabeth Fry Chapter consists of women that work together for the public good of their community. It is a non-denominational and non-partisan organization of volunteers who are involved in fundraising efforts to finance their activities. The work of this group is connected to service, education, and citizenship. The Elizabeth Fry Chapter is also a member of the IODE at the provincial and national levels.
