What is IODE Laurentian?

IODE Laurentian is an Ottawa-based chapter of IODE Canada, a national women's charitable organization founded in 1900. We are women of all ages, from all walks of life, who meet for fun, friendship and to make a difference in the lives of people in need in our community, especially youth at risk.
