Fraternal organizations identify themselves as brotherhoods and/or sisterhoods, with lifetime memberships, shared ideals and principles, and ritualistic traditions. These organizations may be formed with different purposes, including social interaction, public service, or mutual benefit (such as financial services or insurance for members).
