About Prince Henry Society of Taunton
The Prince Henry Society of Taunton represents a unique blend of fraternal brotherhood and community service, bringing together business and professional people of Portuguese descent who share a commitment to giving back. Established in 1980, this invitation-only organization in Taunton, MA was founded on a vision of strengthening the Portuguese-American community through three interconnected goals: charitable contributions, educational scholarships, and active service to the region. What distinguishes the Prince Henry Society in the Taunton community is its emphasis on both professional excellence and personal connection—members form strong fraternal bonds while working collectively toward meaningful impact. The organization's selective membership approach, which welcomes individuals with at least one Portuguese parent, ensures that each member is genuinely invested in the Society's mission and willing to contribute their time and resources. Since its founding, the organization has demonstrated remarkable dedication, contributing over half a million dollars to local charities and scholarship programs while recognizing individuals who have made significant contributions to community life. The Prince Henry Society of Taunton preserves and celebrates Portuguese heritage in America while actively shaping the future through educational support for young people of Portuguese descent. With regular community events and fundraising initiatives, the organization continues to enhance its image and strengthen the bonds within the Taunton Portuguese-American community as it looks toward sustained growth and service.
