Founded in 1928 in Uniontown, Ohio, The Union & League of Romanian Societies of America, Inc. emerged from the merger of two fraternal organizations with a shared vision of community support and cultural preservation. Born from the needs of Romanian immigrants seeking financial assistance during illness or death and a desire to maintain their heritage in America, the Union & League has grown into the oldest Romanian organization operating in the United States and Canada. The organization's mission centers on three core values: providing meaningful help and support to members, fostering social interaction within the Romanian-American community, and preserving the cultural identity that defines Romanian heritage. Today, the Union & League comprises fraternal benefit societies spanning nine states and Canada, creating a network of mutual aid and cultural connection. Members benefit from the organization's long history of trust, its commitment to ethnic traditions, and its role as a keeper of Romanian-American identity. The Union & League's presence in Uniontown serves as a testament to the enduring importance of community organizations that honor immigrant traditions while supporting members through life's challenges. Through publications like America News and various community events, the organization continues to strengthen bonds among Romanian-Americans and celebrate their shared cultural legacy.
