WHAT IS FRANAM

Franam is an organization of American or Canadian citizens, of French paternal lineage, who are engaged in a business or profession and are otherwise qualified for membership, who love their country and desire to preserve its cherished institutions; who love their fellow beings and seek to promote their well being; and who love the joyousness of life and endeavor to contribute to it, as well as to share it.

Franam questions no one’s religion, nor bars them on account of their creed. It is not concerned with their political beliefs or affiliations and does not permit religion or politics to be injected into, or to have any effect upon, its deliberations.

Franam lures no one by proposed material benefits, which might appeal to their self-interest. It pledges no support to the furtherance of personal ambitions. It has no insurance feature to appeal to one’s sense of economy. Franam is beneficent, and believes that doing good is better than merely being good. Franam teaches that it is nobler to serve than to be served; that laughter is better than tears; a kind word more potent than a frown, and that life is all the sweeter for a song.

Franam seeks to draw into its circle only those who delight in wholesome associations with congenial companions; who are deeply impressed with the spirit of patriotic loyalty and devotion; who recognize their fraternal obligations; and who prove themselves to be friends of all peoples.

With Franamians instilling and fostering such ideals, Franam will always remain a purposeful organization.
