01 HELLO, IRIS

Not just something
to join. Somewhere
to belong.

Iris is our local chapter of the International Order of the Rainbow for Girls—a youth organization where girls learn by doing.

Members plan activities, support charities, practice public speaking, travel, celebrate one another and form friendships across New Jersey and beyond. Every girl can start exactly where she is.

Make good happen

Choose meaningful causes, serve the community and see how even a small group can create a big impact.

GOOD QUESTIONS

Parents usually
want to know…

What do the girls actually do?+

They plan events, lead meetings, volunteer, fundraise, travel, practice public speaking and make a lot of memories together. The exact mix changes with each girl-led term.

Is Rainbow a religion?+

No. Rainbow teaches values and welcomes girls from different faith backgrounds. Families can ask the local advisory team about ceremonies and expectations before joining.

Do we need a Masonic connection?+

No. Girls do not need a relative in the Masonic family to join. Iris can help an interested family through every step of the process.

Can we visit before deciding?+

Absolutely. A social activity or public event is a comfortable way to meet members and advisors before making any commitment.
