The Order Sons and Daughters of Italy in America (OSDIA) is a non-profit organization based in the District of Columbia that serves Italian American men and women. Founded in 1905, it operates as a national body focused on promoting Italian American culture, traditions, and contributions while supporting a broad network of members and supporters. The organization encompasses charitable and advocacy efforts through its philanthropic arm, the Sons of Italy Foundation, which provides scholarships, medical research funding, cultural preservation, disaster relief, and other causes. OSDIA also advances its anti-defamation and educational mission through the Commission for Social Justice, which addresses racism, prejudice, and stereotyping against Italians and Italian Americans, and disseminates information via its official publication, Italian America magazine, a widely read quarterly for people of Italian heritage. In recent activity, OSDIA participated in cultural events such as the Festa di San Patrizio and collaborated with local partners, reflecting its community-oriented approach across the United States.
